That would work only between insmod and the first time some application uses the driver. Once the input has been set by the application the card will not pass-through any more (unless it is one of the inputs with amux == LINE1). Users will have to learn that the pass-through works only with the correct input anyway (unless they never actually use the driver, but why you would buy a card then in the first place?). > Gerd, do we need a new input entry for 'hardware default state'?
