Hello all.
I'm facing a problem with the volume control on my FC3/Gnome 2.8 desktop.
When i open the volume control, i see 10-12 same entries of EMU10K1,EMU10K1 PCM,etc. I know that EMU10K1 has something to do with my SB Live card, but i can't figure out why there are so many same controls?
Has anybody got any idea what should i do in order to delete the multiple instances?
Thanx in advance....

Rep:
You're probably alright, sounds like the mixer is just giving you more channels than you're used to seeing. There are different channels for different functions of the card.
good luck.
i haven't had a problem with the sound....
i just thought it was very strange to have so many same volume controls...
and actually, i think the multiple instances appeared after playing around with some 'dsp' settings when i was testing 'skype'...
anyway, i'll leave it as it is since it causes no trouble...
