Sound always maxed up on ALSA with Ali 5451 card
Hi there,
I have an ECS A530 laptop (which sucks, don't buy it) and its Ali 5451 sound card seems to work fine with ALSA, except for the annoying fact that it is always either at maximum level or mute...
I'm a Linux newbie so I can't really describe much, but the problem I notice is this: the only sound control that works is PCM, but it's totally binary...either the sound is off or is at maximum, no matter where the sound control is. (what is PCM, by the way?)
Can anyone please help me configure this so that the sound controls work normally?
Thanks,
Eduardo
