this *should properly* be handled by the dmasound driver - it needs to
understand the sound hardware (and on some models shares interrupts with
other sound stuff)

I had this implemented in a patch posted long long ago (mac-like sound
controls iirc).  Mostly met with 'I like dual volume controls'.  Given
that, it should be runtime disable-able.  so that would mean either another
event for our daemon, a proc interface, or an ioctl.  Preference?

well, it's not possible on all models to have the twin volume controls - it
works on the G3/Beige - which I'm sitting at - and, I think, on some of my
other machines ... but the headphone level is not independently split out
(IIRC) on, say, the iMac - (correct me if wrong - I haven't got round to
looking at it yet)...

Here's where the original post was.  thread easily followable from there.

I recall my implementation was a little flaky in the sleep department, but the core interupt and register handling is in there.  under AUDIO_SWITCHING defines.  its interwoven into an earlier version of the volume controls that someone else
provided.  And this was written for 2.2.

It's a start, but not at all useful as is.

Hope this helps.
