Hello Friends,
I would like to ask if anybody can post a working example on how to use the ALSA hooks plugin in the asound.conf.
I checked
http://www.alsa-project.org/alsa-doc...m_plugins.html but it is a little too unspecific for me to get it working.
I would like to setup function such that everytime a pcm is used the "IEC958 Playback Switch" is set (forced) to false.
I am using an Nforce2 integrated sound card.
Thanks
Ulf
This is my current asound.conf
# Override the default output used by ALSA.
# If you do not override the default, your default
# device is identical to the (unmixed) analog device
# shown below. If you prefer mixed and/or digital
# output, uncomment the appropriate four lines below
# (only one slave.pcm line).
pcm.!default {
type plug
## Uncomment the following to use mixed analog by default
#slave.pcm "dmix-analog"
## Uncomment the following to use unmixed digital by default
# slave.pcm "digital-hw"

slave.pcm "dmix-digital"
}
