[pulseaudio-discuss] [PATCH] alsa-mixer: Allow speaker port to control "Front Speaker"

[Colin Guthrie]

'Twas brillig, and David Henningsson at 12/01/12 09:58 did gyre and gimble:

Seams reasonable.

On a related note, have you ever come across a "Master Front" on your
travels?

To me it doesn't make much sense (was is "Master Front" that isn't
covered by "Front"?). Perhaps it's just a mislabelled "Master" - don't
suppose you remember fixing or seeing a fix for this?
