Version: 2.6.1 (using KDE 3.4.2, Mandrake Linux Cooker i586 - Cooker) Compiler: Target: i586-mandriva-linux-gnu OS: Linux (i686) release 2.6.12-12mdk The IEC958 switches are only for Input/Capture. No Digital Out toggle available (IEC958 Playback) on the output panel, so can't switch to digital/spdif out from kmix. amixer output for this control: Simple mixer control 'IEC958',0 Capabilities: pswitch pswitch-joined cswitch cswitch-joined Playback channels: Mono Capture channels: Mono Mono: Playback [off] Capture [off]
Dear bug reporter, I am quite sure this issue has been fixed while fixing bug 110807 (it is about playback/capture controls here), and also relates to bug 121827. So I do advise to upgrade to KDE3.5.1 and try it - if it doesn't, please just reopen this bug report.
I upgraded those packages: kdemultimedia-kmix-3.5.1-1mdk libkdemultimedia1-kmix-3.5.1-1mdk no changes.
Francois, thanks for the quick feedback. I took a closer look, and now understand what is going wrong here. Accepting bug. Reproducable with nForce2 card, Simple mixer control 'IEC958' .
Work on this has started. Target milestone: KDE4.0 For the files. this is the "pswitch cswitch" issue
