Public bug reported:
1) ubuntu 12.10 (fresh install), but also happens to 11.10 and 12.04
2) (translated from my language)
gnome-control-center:
Installed: 1:3.4.2-0ubuntu19
Suggested: 1:3.4.2-0ubuntu19
Edition matrix:
*** 1:3.4.2-0ubuntu19 0
500 http://gr.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ quantal/main amd64 Packages
100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
3) ----what expected ---
can control volume through indicator as i could if stereo or 5.1 configuration
is set up
4) -----what happened------
i used 7.1 analog configuration (hardware: creative x-fi xtreme music, creative
inspire t7900) and the only way to control the volume correct is through
qasmixer.
On a fresh install i have no sound on center speaker and there is no way to fix
it (without qasmixer) through gnome-control-center\sound.
I post it as bug of gnome-control-center\sound because I suppose it is. Every
other speaker configuration works fine. I supose that the normal in this case
is to can control the volume through gnome-control-center\sound (or indicator)
without any other software.
The solution i gave to myself was to set the volume from the
gnome-control-center\sound to max, and control the rest through the qasmixer...
but i wish it works in a normal way. Now, the gnome-control-center\sound and
the sound indicator (the volume option, not the hole thing) are totally useless
to me.
5) hope it helps
