Okay, some more research done today, and I also talked to Juho @ Jolla/Sailfish about it, because they would probably suffer from the same problem.
It's somewhat of a misdesign or broken thinking, I believe. In short, Qt allows the app to set the volume of its sounds. This is an important feature; it allows e g, if you have two sound effects, for them to be at different volumes. Then it opens two streams and set the stream volume accordingly. Ubuntu phone / PulseAudio however comes from the other direction and sets stream volume based on role. The problem comes when the app then overrides this volume. I believe we need to multiply both volumes somehow instead of just letting the app override it. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1485522 Title: Volume obtained is 100% in multimedia sink for sounds from app To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/canonical-devices-system-image/+bug/1485522/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
