ALSA volume control ignored for "4c4a:4155 Jieli Technology USB Composite Device" #401

Closed davidmcnabnz closed 3 months ago

davidmcnabnz commented 4 months ago

I just purchased a generic USB audio interface, which shows up in lsusb as:

4c4a:4155 Jieli Technology USB Composite Device

The device on the whole seems to simply just work. But the level control for the stereo capture seems to be completely ignored, both in alsamixer and pavucontrol.

My setup is Debian GNU/Linux 12 (bookworm), standard apt including contrib. General stack is wireplumber and pipewire, implementing JACK via pw-jack and pipewire-pulse. This is working very well for my music work.

Lastly, below is a paste of my currently installed packages relevant to ALSA and JACK.

Grateful if anyone can advise.

Cheers David
