Public bug reported: Binary package hint: pulseaudio
For some reason, PulseAudio gives very undescriptive name and description for Sound Blaster Live PCI card. index: 1 name: <alsa_output.pci_1102_2_sound_card_0_alsa_playback_0> driver: <modules/module-alsa-sink.c> flags: HW_VOLUME_CTRL LATENCY HARDWARE state: SUSPENDED volume: <0: 32% 1: 32%> mute: <0> latency: <0 usec> monitor source: <2> sample spec: <s16le 2ch 44100Hz> channel map: <front-left,front-right> used by: <0> linked by: <0> module: <2> description: <ALSA PCM on front:0 (ADC Capture/Standard PCM Playback) via DMA> The user cannot figure out from the context that ADC Capture/Standard means Sound Blaster Live card. Thus, the user is very confused with sound settings. ** Affects: pulseaudio (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Misleading name for SB Live PCI https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/229138 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
