Try this: 1. open gnome-volume-control and gnome-alsamixer 2. in gnome-volume-control, drag the Output volume slider to 0 (but don't mute) 3. start playing some audio in another application 4. slowly start dragging the Output volume slider up, and watch the Master and PCM sliders in gnome-alsamixer
What you will see is for about the first 10% of the Output volume slider, the PCM slider goes up. No sound can be heard when this is happening. Once the PCM hits maximum, the Master starts to increase. Only at this point will you start to hear sound. The problem is at this point the volume goes from nothing to loud instantly. There is no gradient. The workaround, as mentioned above, is to use alsamixer instead of the volume control. -- gnome-volume-control slider moves both Master and PCM https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/573661 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
