Toggle to enable software mixing
SUMMARY
My laptop is problematic with the default hardware volume mixing since it has 4
speaker and 2 of them stay at full volume all the time, so the only fix was to
enable software mixing as per this link:
https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/PipeWire#No_sound_from_USB_DAC_until_30%_volume
But I really wish to see it in the settings as a GUI toggle to make hardware
issues like this to be troubleshooted easily.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Put a toggle for "Enable software mixing" in the "Configure volume controls"
settings part that enables software mixing
EXPECTED RESULT
Being able to use software mixing through the Plasma settings.
