It supports multiple soundcards. If your card has -features that you can't seem to control from a mixer application, -you have come to the right place. - -.SH COMMANDS - -\fIstore\fP saves the current driver state for the selected soundcard -to the configuration file. - -\fIrestore\fP loads driver state for the selected soundcard from the -configuration file. If restoring fails (eventually partly), the init -action is called. - -\fIinit\fP tries to initialize all devices to a default state. If device -is not known, error code 99 is returned. - -If no soundcards are specified, setup for all cards will be saved or -loaded. - -.SH OPTIONS - -.TP -\fI\-h, \-\-help\fP -Help: show available flags and commands. - -.TP -\fI\-d, \-\-debug\fP -Use debug mode: a bit more verbose. - -.TP -\fI\-v, \-\-version\fP -Print alsactl version number. - -.TP -\fI\-f, \-\-file\fP -Select the configuration file to use. The default is /etc/asound.state. - -.TP -\fI\-F, \-\-force\fP -Used with restore command. Try to restore the matching control elements -as much as possible. This option is set as default now. - -.TP -\fI\-g, \-\-ignore\fP -Used with store and restore commands. Do not show 'No soundcards found' -and do not set an error exit code when soundcards are not installed. - -.TP -\fI\-P, \-\-pedantic\fP -Used with restore command. Don't restore mismatching control elements. -This option was the old default behavior. - -.TP -\fI\-I, \-\-no\-init\-fallback\fP -Don't initialize cards if restore fails. Since version 1.0.18, -\fBalsactl\fP tries to initialize the card with the restore operation -as default. But this can cause incompatibility with the older version. -The caller may expect that the state won't be touched if no state file -exists. This option takes the restore behavior back to the older -version by suppressing the initialization. - -.TP -\fI\-r, \-\-runstate\fP -Save restore and init state to this file. The file will contain only errors. -Errors are appended with the soundcard id to the end of file. - -.TP -\fI\-R, \-\-remove\fP -Remove runstate file at first. - -.TP -\fI\-E, \-\-env\fP #=# -Set environment variable (useful for init action or you may override -ALSA_CONFIG_PATH to read different or optimized configuration - may be -useful for "boot" scripts). - -.TP -\fI\-i, \-\-initfile\fP #=# -The configuration file for init. By default, PREFIX/share/alsa/init/00main -is used. - -.SH FILES -\fI/etc/asound.state\fP (or whatever file you specify with the -\fB\-f\fP flag) is used to store current settings for your -soundcards. The settings include all the usual soundcard mixer -settings. More importantly, alsactl is -capable of controlling other card-specific features that mixer apps -usually don't know about. - -The configuration file is generated automatically by running -\fBalsactl store\fP. Editing the configuration file by hand may be -necessary for some soundcard features (e.g. enabling/disabling -automatic mic gain, digital output, joystick/game ports, some future MIDI -routing options, etc). - -.SH SEE ALSO -\fB -amixer(1), -alsamixer(1), -aplay(1) -\fP - -.SH BUGS -None known. - -.SH AUTHOR -\fBalsactl\fP is by Jaroslav Kysela <perex@perex.cz> and Abramo Bagnara -<abramo@alsa\-project.org>.
