I found a workaround :D With the command, you can control the volume: amixer set Master 1- (lower), amixer set Master 1+ (higher) This commands can be set for the special keys you want: System Settings -> Keyboard -> Shortcuts -> Custom Shortcuts Here you have to create two new entries: 1. Name: VolumeUp, Command: amixer set Master 2+ (I think '1' is too slow for change). The second one for VolumeDown. Then set the key for running this command by clicking on the line and type, scroll or whatever you want to use for volume-control.
The only thing which don't work is the quick-notifying (this bubble in the top-right corner) which shows the change of the volume. But now it works smooth as hell :) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-settings-daemon in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/871133 Title: Ubuntu Oneric Volume Step Can Not be Changed Status in “gnome-settings-daemon” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Changing the volume step in gconf-editor does not do anything when adjusting the volume on a hardware dial. --- ApportVersion: 1.23-0ubuntu3 Architecture: i386 DistroRelease: Ubuntu 11.10 EcryptfsInUse: Yes InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 11.04 "Natty Narwhal" - Beta i386 (20110413) Package: gnome-settings-daemon 3.2.0-0ubuntu5 PackageArchitecture: i386 ProcEnviron: PATH=(custom, no user) LANG=en_US.UTF-8 SHELL=/bin/bash ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.0.0-12.20-generic 3.0.4 Tags: oneiric running-unity Uname: Linux 3.0.0-12-generic i686 UpgradeStatus: Upgraded to oneiric on 2011-10-08 (3 days ago) UserGroups: adm admin cdrom dialout lpadmin plugdev sambashare vboxusers To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-settings-daemon/+bug/871133/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
