What you are missing is the fact that not all pieces of hardware have a master volume control, which is what you are asking about in your code. It is quite common for devices, like the built-in hardware on most Macs, to have individual channel volumes so you would need to ask for the volume on channel 1 and channel 2 as well as the master channel.

I am using the Java CoreAudio classes, and I want to be able to read the
volume on the default input and output devices, but I am running into
problems:


// query for the input device -- succeeds
AudioDevice device = AudioHardware.getDefaultInputDevice();

// create a memory object to hold the Float32
CAMemoryObject propVal = new CAMemoryObject(4,true);

// query for the volume -- fails with kAudioHardwareUnknownPropertyError
device.getInputProperty (0,AHConstants.kAudioDevicePropertyVolumeScalar,propVal);


I have also tried to query for kAudioDevicePropertyVolumeDecibels with the
same result.


Any idea what I am missing?

Thanks,
Bryan
