Since all boards seem to be different (even with the same chip, a manufacturer might choose to wire inputs differently from one other) there isn't much to do but idendify the _baord_ precisely and provide the adequate mapping. It's a hard task since it needs to have the board available, the data sheets of the controller are not enough. > The thing listed as "cd" isn't; to change the level of the audio > coming from the CDROM drive audio connection you have to fiddle with the > "synth" mixer input. > > At least the "pcm" mixer control corresponds to the right thing, as does > the "line" mixer input. for me as an example, the plug labelled "line in" must be controlled with the "cd" name...
