Hi,
after I upgraded from 2.6.34-rc5-mm1 to 2.6.35-rc5-mm1 (there were other
issues in between them), the sound from my soundcard is very very quiet.
alsa-info:

Any ideas?
thanks,

I've just find out that whatever value 1-64 is set the Master control to
via amixer, it plays still the same. So the mixer (Master volume) is
somehow screwed up.
These two are the same volumes:
# amixer -D hw sset Master,0 64
Simple mixer control 'Master',0
Capabilities: pvolume pvolume-joined pswitch pswitch-joined penum
Playback channels: Mono
Limits: Playback 0 - 64
Mono: Playback 64 [100%] [0.00dB] [on]
# amixer -D hw sset Master,0 1
Simple mixer control 'Master',0
Capabilities: pvolume pvolume-joined pswitch pswitch-joined penum
Playback channels: Mono
Limits: Playback 0 - 64
Mono: Playback 1 [2%] [-47.25dB] [on]
This turns sound off, indeed:
amixer -D hw sset Master,0 0
Simple mixer control 'Master',0
Capabilities: pvolume pvolume-joined pswitch pswitch-joined penum
Playback channels: Mono
Limits: Playback 0 - 64
Mono: Playback 0 [0%] [-48.00dB] [on]

Looks like a regression by the amp max value check.
The following patch should fix the problem.
thanks,

Subject: [PATCH] ALSA: hda - Fix max amp cap calculation for IDT/STAC codecs
The commit afbd9b8448f4b7d15673c6858012f384f18d28b8
ALSA: hda - Limit the amp value to write
introduced a regression for codec setups with amp offsets like IDT/STAC
codecs. The limit value should be a raw value without offset calculation.

Confirming - I saw the same issue but didn't get a chance to track it down. This patch fixes it.
Feel free to stick a Tested-By: on it on its way upstream...
