Also affects me. I just want to add: on my laptop (Inspiron 510m), the login sound is so loud that the speakers rattle. Since the ALSA drivers aren't capable of applying EQ settings (which are present in Windows drivers for virtually all laptops), this is pushing the speakers beyond their recommended limit, and to my ears it sounds quite capable of physically damaging the speakers.
Very annoying. Remember that most laptops do not have analog volume controls, so there is no way to physically reduce the volume (and the login sound plays before the volume hotkeys become responsive). -- X login screen volume always set to max; crazy loud https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/378325 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
