Rotary Encoder not working correctly

[alpex8]

I'm trying to use the rotary encoder function. As there isn't a release including it I built the package myself and installed it. Afterwards I set up the buttons and the rotary encoder following the README. I double checked using the correct GPIOs.

The Push Buttons are working as expected. However the volume meter only can be used to decrease the volume. This is my config:

[raspberry-gpio]
enabled = true
bcm23 = volume_up,active_low,20,rotenc_id=vol,step=1
bcm24 = volume_down,active_low,20,rotenc_id=vol,step=1
bcm27 = play_pause,active_low,250
bcm17 = next,active_low,250
bcm22 = prev,active_low,250

By switching volume_up and volume_down I can switch the direction in which the volume meter will decrease the volume. So since both directions are doing something, I think that this isn't a connectivity issue. I assume that it's a software issue.

Can you point me in a direction, what I can do to fix this? Maybe @martinfelis can help here.

Thanks

I added some debug log messages. Turned out the rotary encoder is working, but the call for setting the volume up just does nothing:

Here are the messages when turning clockwise:

In case of turning the volume down the call of self.core.mixer.set_volume(volume) somehow isn't picked up by mopidy.mixer and mopidy.listener

Problem not related to this extension. It's an issue of the alsamixer extension (https://github.com/mopidy/mopidy-alsamixer/issues/19).
