[Pkg-alsa-devel] Bug#271341: alsactl wrapper?

[Thomas Hood]

Should we write a wrapper for alsactl that implements the requested
additional functionality?

The idea is that "alsactl restore" would, in addition to doing
"alsactl.real restore", also do something like what Bob McElrath
suggested[1]:

    shopt -s nullglob
    cd /proc/asound && for F in card[0-9]/pcm[0-9][pc] ; do
        CONFFILE="/etc/alsa/oss.d/$F"
        PROCFILE="/proc/asound/$F/oss"
        if [ -r "$CONFFILE" ] && [ -w "$PROCFILE" ] ; then
            cat "$CONFFILE" > "$PROCFILE"
        fi
    done
