Oliver, after mixer(8) can change the volume, that means the snd_envy24ht can write to and control the DAC (AK4358) on the Revo 5.1 and so that silent sound is the maximum volume that the hardware (Envy24GT+AK4358) can provide, because when do 'mixer vol 100', it set the AK4358 to the maximum volume, 'mixer pcm' do nothing at the moment, so when you do 'mixer pcm 0' or 'mixer pcm 100' nothing should change. i made new version, so when 'mixer pcm' is used, volume will be changed in software and when 'mixer vol' is used, like before, volume will be changed in hardware (in the DAC), i don't know how it will behave, but as usual the new code is here: http://envy24.svobodno.com/driver/envy24ht/current/envy24ht.c and you can test it and report back the results ... P.S. Oliver, if you willing to help me gathering more info about the Revo 5.1 hardware, when i have more time for that i will mail you with some instructions. On 2/17/07, O.
