As seen also on https://code.google.com/p/volti/issues/detail?id=27
and https://code.google.com/p/volti/issues/detail?id=26, starting the
mixer or opening the settings fails with:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/volti-mixer", line 46, in <module>
    mix = mixer.Mixer()
  File "/usr/lib/volti/volti/mixer.py", line 77, in __init__
    self.init_controls()
  File "/usr/lib/volti/volti/mixer.py", line 142, in init_controls
    for count, mixer in enumerate(alsa.mixers(card_index)):
alsaaudio.ALSAAudioError: No such file or directory

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib/volti/volti/menu.py", line 52, in show_preferences
    self.main.preferences.open()
  File "/usr/lib/volti/volti/preferences.py", line 92, in open
    _PREFERENCES.init_card_combobox()
  File "/usr/lib/volti/volti/preferences.py", line 233, in init_card_combobox
    for index, card in enumerate(self.main.alsactrl.get_cards()):
  File "/usr/lib/volti/volti/alsactrl.py", line 182, in get_cards
    self.get_mixers(index)[0]
  File "/usr/lib/volti/volti/alsactrl.py", line 192, in get_mixers
    for mixer in alsa.mixers(card_index):
alsaaudio.ALSAAudioError: No such file or directory

The patch from https://code.google.com/p/volti/issues/detail?id=27
fixes the problem for me.


Cheers,
