The ASoC drivers tend to follow own rules about control names, and we don't force the standard control names. And renaming again shall result in another regressions for applications that are using the current name. So, the rename is no-go, sorry. This has been discussed a couple of times in the last meetings, but no clear consensus met, so far. The definition of the standard control names is more or less obsoleted nowadays. For resolving the Master volume problem, user-space should use UCM if available. |
