Bug#402682: linux-image-2.6.18-3-amd64: emu10k1 and Audigy 4: Line mixer should be a playback mixer
Package: linux-image-2.6.18-3-amd64
Version: 2.6.18-7
Severity: normal
I have an Creative Audigy 4 sound card which uses the snd-emu10k1 module
from the Linux kernel.
In the kernel versions 2.6.17 and before the line mixer used to be a
playback mixer. But with 2.6.18 this changed and now it is a capture mixer.
As a result I can no longer use the mixer in my TV and radio
applications and I am not able to change the volume.
My TV card uses the line input as its sound output.
Maybe this is not a kernel bug and should be fixed in the TV and radio
applications (kdetv and kradio in my case), but all sound cards I used
before had the line mixer as playback mixer. So there was never a problem.
The attached patch fixes the problem in the emu10k1 module by not rename
the line mixer (as it was before).
Regards,
Markus
