The new driver for the X1000 sound card is great as well as the new mixer and mixer Dockey.
Thanks to Lyle and javierdlr for the great work!
I have found a couple of issues with the beta version of mixer and mixer Dockey.
Mixer:
I don't seem to be able to set the mixer program to start up defaulted to the X1000 setting.
I start it and it defaults to CMI8738. I then change the setting to X1000 and save the settings
but after I reboot it's set back to CMI8738 again. The setting does not seem to be saved in
the preferences. This means that the master volume AREXX commands I have assigned to
keys on my keyboard don't change the volume because it's changing the volume of the CMI8738
card. I have to start mixer and change the setting to get the volume keys to work. I'm guessing if I
take out the sound card I won't have this problem but it seems to me the selection should be saved
in the preferences anyway.
Mixer Dockey:
Aside from the 'needs hdaudio.device 6.22' message at startup as aleady mentioned I ran across a couple
more issues. One is a "Don't do that" kind of issue but I thought I would mention it anyway.
First issue:
If I activate the "DOCKY_1CLICK=YES" tooltype the first time I single click on the docky it opens just fine, as
expected, but after that it takes three clicks to open it.
Second issue:
I have placed Mixer Docky in my dock. If I click it so the volume control is displayed, then I double click on the
Mixer Docky Icon it will cause a Guru. I know...a silly thing to due but hey, I'm a software QA engineer in real life
so I try silly things.
Fix the two important issues and I'll be able to free up my PCI slot by removing the sound card.
Again, nice work guys!
