i3status volume module - how to show seperate volume for Master and PCM?

[azn]

Hello, does anyone know how to make i3status volume module to show seperate volume for alsa Master and PCM?

My lines according to these modules in ~/.i3status.conf looks like

Code: Select all

order += "volume master"
order += "volume pcm"

Code: Select all

volume master {
        format = ": %volume"
        format_muted = ": %volume"
        device = "default"
        mixer = "Master"
        mixer_idx = 0
}

volume pcm {
        format = ": %volume"
        format_muted = ": %volume"
        device = "default"
        mixer = "PCM"
        mixer_idx = 1
}

Currently they both show like "mixed" volume of both Master and PCM - so I need to set both Master and PCM to 100% in alsamixer. When there is like 41% Master and 73% PCM the module will show 36%.

I know I can use different status bar but I am happy with i3status and I know i can use tray programs for such things but would love to know how to do it right with the module I am using as I cannot get it right myself.

btw. documentation did not help much here.
