[Touch-packages] [Bug 1534929] [NEW] [USB-Audio - USB PnP Sound Device, playback] volume slider problem: USB headset playback suddenly drops to inaudible when volume is set below a certain level

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1534929] Re: [USB-Audio - USB PnP Sound Device, playback] volume slider problem: USB headset playback suddenly drops to inaudible when volume is set below a certain level
The 40 % is roughly the position of the volume slider in the sound settings, i. e., slightly left from the center position between zero volume and maximal volume. Note that in alsamixer, the situation is different: there the drop occurs between 1 % and 2 % (but alsamixer's 2 % is equivalent to sound setting's ~40 %). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to alsa-driver in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1534929 Title: [USB-Audio - USB PnP Sound Device, playback] volume slider problem: USB headset playback suddenly drops to inaudible when volume is set below a certain level Status in alsa-driver package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: With this headset: [ 9922.706941] usb 1-1.4: new full-speed USB device number 4 using ehci-pci [ 9922.805274] usb 1-1.4: New USB device found, idVendor=1ea7, idProduct=0055 [ 9922.805279] usb 1-1.4: New USB device strings: Mfr=1, Product=2, SerialNumber=0 [ 9922.805282] usb 1-1.4: Product: USB PnP Sound Device [ 9922.805284] usb 1-1.4: Manufacturer: C-Media Electronics Inc.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1534929] Re: [USB-Audio - USB PnP Sound Device, playback] volume slider problem: USB headset playback suddenly drops to inaudible when volume is set below a certain level
I specified ignore_DB=1 in /etc/pulse/{system,default}.pa, and get the
following:
Feb 14 11:36:30 erz pulseaudio[3406]: [pulseaudio] module-udev-detect.c: Failed
to parse module arguments

Feb 14 11:36:30 erz pulseaudio[3403]: [pulseaudio] main.c: Daemon startup

I guess the patch hasn't made it yet into 14.04, which seems strange
since it's from 2009. I'll try rebuilding pulseaudio.
