[alsa-devel] Volume issues: Logitech S-150 USB Digital Speaker / "usb_audio: Warning! Unlikely big volume range"
Hi!
I'm currently trying to use a Logitech S-150 USB Digital Speaker. Unfortunately, the volume range is way off, i.e. only 1% and 2% settings in the alsamixer are actually usable for general playback.
dmesg: ----- [ 9850.768093] usb 1-1: new full-speed USB device number 2 using uhci_hcd [ 9850.948103] usb 1-1: New USB device found, idVendor=1130, idProduct=1620 [ 9850.948123] usb 1-1: New USB device strings: Mfr=0, Product=2, SerialNumber=0 [ 9850.948138] usb 1-1: Product: USB AUDIO [ 9852.353857] hidraw: raw HID events driver (C) Jiri Kosina [ 9852.397038] usb_audio: Warning!

The detected vendor does not seem to match, so all in all looks like a kernel bug?
If you need any additional information or someone testing a kernel patch, just let me know.
Cheers, Linus
PS: My current workaround is to use more fine grained settings via amixer.

You're facing a firmware bug, most probably just an endianess issue (17152 = 0x4300). You can add a quirk for this device in order to fix it up. Have a look at volume_control_quirks() in sound/usb/mixer.c if you want, or tell me the name of the affected volume control.

No, lsusb just shows you the name of the company that registered the USB vendor ID, 0x1130 in this case. Logitech seems to have licensed a design from another company here.
