|
|
Hello everybody.
I happen to own a Terratec DMX 6Fire 24-96 sound card and I am facing some sort of inconvenience. I will explain.
The card, instead of having fixed sound outputs for various sources in its mixer (pcm, midi, cd digital etc.) it seems to have 6 identical DACs which can be customly mapped to any sound source with names DAC1, DAC2 and so on.
Is there a way to permanently rename these (through a configuration file perhaps) to more discrete and more usable names, for example, pcm, midi, cd-digital and so on.
I know that people with the slightly older DMX 6Fire 1024 or Audigy 2 sound cards have equivalent problems.
I have no problem with sound. Applications like XMMS, beep media player, Totem and KMPlayer produce sound normally.
As I have said, while the problem is mainly cosmetic, it would be very helpful if these names could be changed.
I am running the ALSA Ice1712 driver, with gentoo-dev-sources (2.6.5) and Gnome 2.6.
Specifically I am interested in changing the names that appear in the following mixers:
- alsamixer (console)
- Gnome Volume Control (Gnome Panel)
- Gnome ALSA Mixer (ALSA volume control)
Thank you in advance for your time. |

I cannot believe no one else has the same problem since it has been known to happen to Audigy 2 cards as well. |
