[alsa-devel] Master channel is only mono
As per gnubien's advice on #alsa on irc.freenode.net, I have run alsa-info.sh - the URL is http://www.alsa-project.org/db/?f=fbe93f301ca214007e66c521cd6c41a17a604c79 .
My problem is that the master channel for my card is shown to be mono only, which I don't think seems right...
Also, sound in general is rather low.
My system is a very new Dell Studio laptop - I have loaded snd-hda-intel with mode=dell-m6 as per the kernel documentation.
Best regards,
Sune Mølgaard

Better to run alsa-info.sh with --no-upload and attach it instead of URL.

Mono is correct. You have other mixer elements for left/right volume balance.
Also, sound in general is rather low.
I guess you didn't raise headphone and speaker volumes.

Sorry about that. I was instructed otherwise...

Mono is correct. You have other mixer elements for left/right volume balance.
Could you recommend to me a mixer program that can access them, then? alsamixer only shows Master, Headphone, Headphone 1, PCM, Digital Input Source [Digital Mic 1], Digital Input Source 1 [Analog Inputs] and Speaker.
Same goes for the gnome mixer with all inputs selected...

Nope, Master, Speaker, and PCM are at max.

Thank you for your input, but it would seem that I still need some advice...
Best regards,
