So it appears that pactl or pacmd isn't in qubes Dom0 repository. Any suggestions on how I can control Pulse Audio through the command line? Apparently it can be done with amixer:
amixer -D pulse sset Master mute However, the device pulse doesn't exist. amixer without arguments displays all the devices - no pulse device. amixer sset Master mute Works - but that, i think, is setting it through Alsa - and once Alsa is muted Pulse Audio remains muted until explicitly unmuted.. which has to be done through pavucontrol. I'm lost. I've never liked sound on Linux.. it makes my brain hurt. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
