I have no idea why this command works on a Pi 3, but not on a Zero (I'd love to know). However, a respondent on the Raspberry Pi Forums suggested using pulseaudio, eg: amixer -D pulse set Master 50% Initially it didn't work, but then I realised that pulseaudio probably wasn't installed by default in Raspberry PI OS Lite. After installation I got a permission error, but it worked after a reboot. -- Terry Coles -- Next meeting: Online, Jitsi, Tuesday, 2022-01-04 20:00 Check to whom you are replying Meetings, mailing list, IRC, ... http://dorset.lug.org.uk New thread, don't hijack: mailto:dorset@mailman.lug.org.uk
