#this .asoundrc will will create a slider called "Software Master" that will control all playback volume
#you can name "Software Master" anything that isnt already in use
#save this file as ~/.asoundrc (per user setting) or /etc/asound.conf (system-wide setting)
#then play something using the 'default' pcm (speaker-test -c2 -Ddefault -twav , for example)
#then, when you run alsamixer, the slider should then be there.. on the far right.
#if its not, try rebooting (sometimes this is needed, and i havent figured out why yet)
# change default device:
pcm.!default {
type softvol
slave.pcm "hw:0"
control {
name "Software Master"
card 0
}
}
