azillia (AMD690) too quiet in linux-2.6.25-rc3..rc6
I have a motherboard that uses the AMD am690g chip set. Its
audio works fine under linux-2.6.24.2. However, in linux-2.6.25-rc3 (haven't tried earlier ones) through 2.6.25-rc6 (released a couple of hours ago), the audio is very very quiet. If I crank up my speakers to the maximum volume, I can hear the music playing relatively quietly. In comparison, if I were to do that with 2.6.24.2, it would disturb the neighbors. In both cases, this is with the volume set in aumix to 100,100 (the maximum value).
I haven't attempted to look through kernel changes from
2.6.24.2 to 2.5.25-rc3 yet, but I wanted to post this information here to see if the problem is known or already fixed in some development branch.
