[PLUG] soundcard volume too low.

[MaD dUCK <madduck@madduck.net>]

mh. another problem. so this one computer was running win98 with one
of those crappy winmodem/soundcard combo (conexant riptide) junk
things, but it was playing mp3's through a set of passive speakers at
a loud volume.

after failing to get that piece of crap soundcard to work, i installed
a SB PCI 128 and got it working. however, the volume is very low. i
used aumix and set it to 100% on all channels, but it's barely
audible. i don't assume that the SB PCI 128 looses to the conexant
crap, so there ought to be a way to push this up... output gain or
something like that. do you have any idea where or how i could set
this?

i am using the es1371.o kernel module or the snd-card-ens1371.o alsa
module (both work, both give the same volume) (SB PCI 128 uses the
ensoniq 1371 chipset).

cheers,

martin;              (greetings from the heart of the sun.)
