[Pkg-alsa-devel] Bug#981044: alsactl prints "No soundcards found" error despite -g/--ignore flag

[MichaIng]

Package: alsa-utils
Version: 1.1.8-2

Little addition: The flag is ignored only in combination with the "init" 
command, while with e.g. "save" the error message (and exit code) is 
indeed omitted.

It might hence be intended the way it is, but I would suggest to expand 
the effect of -g/--ignore to include "init" as well, which is expected 
whenever one uses those two in combination.

Best regards,

Micha
