Is it that you want the mplayer volume control to change a different
parameter on your mixer card, or do you want mplayer to perform the
volume control function before sending data to the sound card at all?
I have a situation similar to the first case - using the SPDIF output
from a SB Live card driven with ALSA, I want the mplayer volume control
to adjust the volume on this output as well as the regular analogue
output. The way I achieved this is by changing line 102 of
libao2/ao_alsa.c (mplayer pre5) to:
static char *mix_name = "Wave";
The parameter "Wave" is the right one in my case (the original code was
"PCM").

James.
