Only the master slider moves when I turn the volume up and down with the keyboard keys. No sound is audible unless the master is at 42% (6.75 dB gain) so the entire range of audio is between 42 and 100%.
It happens the same when I plug headphones in. Now, If I max the master mixer at 100% and use the headphone mixer in alsamixer the scale is linear as it should be meaning I have the full range. It's just the master mixer that is missing roughly half the range. After doing that, the onscreen volume indicator doesn't match the real mixer level and therefore hitting the volume +/- keys on the keyboard really mess with the mixers (PCM mixer alternates between 96-100 for a while and then the master starts being affected, etc) Sorry if my description didn't help, but it's really broken. I would blame just the onscreen indicator but that's not really the problem because you get the same behavior if you use the master mixer in alsamixer. Let me know if I can provide any more details, happy to do whatever. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/912834 Title: master output scale is messed up To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pulseaudio/+bug/912834/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
