It seems that PA refuses to use the maximum hardware volume of my sound
card
(Asus Xonar D1). As a result, the audio is very silent. I have the volume
sliders in pavucontrol set to 100%, but PA only uses 40% (-20db) on the
hardware mixer. [...]
Which control are you raising? Maybe it is not in the default mixer
path known to pulseaudio?
The control is named "Master Front".
Then it is indeed not in the default mixer path [...]
In order to work around it, you can try editing
/usr/share/pulseaudio/alsa-mixer/paths/analog-output.conf and other
conf files in that directory that are relevant to outputs. Find the
[Front] section in each file and duplicate it to say [Master Front] in
the header. Please report if this helps.
I've now duplicated all occurrences of [Element Front] (grep -r
"Front\]") with [Element Master Front]. I then did "pulseaudio -k" (I
assume this reloads the paths). I verified that a new process was
spawned (new PID of the pulseaudio daemon.)
It doesn't help. The hardware mixer control is still not touched by PA.
