[mythtv-users] MythTV CVS, Does it change ALSA volume/mixer settings on it's own?

[Joe V]

Hi all,

I'm running MythTV CVS from August 11, and I'm
noticing something strange.  I'm just wondering if
it's MythTV, or if it's something wonky with ALSA.

I'm using a Soundblaster Live 5.1 card, and I custom
set some ALSA settings (Master volume, Line, Capture,
etc.).  I saved those to /etc/asound.conf using
alsactl store (as root).

I set my master volume at 80, (verify it with
alsamixer), and then run MythTV.  When the GUI pops
up, I run alsamixer again, the master volume is still
80.  As soon as I start watching TV though, it drops
to 71.  Granted, this isn't a big deal, I just need to
increase the volume on my TV by one level.  This also
happens when I change channels, i.e. change the mixer
settings while watching TVs, and then change the
channel, the volume also decreases.

So, is there some setting that I need to change
somewhere?  Or is it just ALSA that is playing tricks
on me?
