Yes, actually I just noticed I've changed the device to ALSA now, from Pulseaudio, and that helps the situation - not sure whether this is a bug in Pulse causing sound to play on low volume -- Ankur, another thing to make sure perhaps is that all the mixer tracks are selected under System -> Preferences -> Sound so all the tracks show up in your Volume Control .. Another (perhaps unrelated) problem I have with sound on the Dell 1525 is that often after coming out of Suspend, I lose all sound until I restart the machine (it sometimes comes back if i do alsa force-reload) .. if trying to diagnose these problems might help others who face similar issues, I can try digging, but so far it's not tortured me, so haven't mentioned on list .. Ankur - hope your problem gets fixed - feel free to ask again for details / clarifications if it does not work for you - and more importantly, if you do get things to work smoothly, please tell us how:) Thanks, Sanjay > > > Also in the volume control dialog, see if changing the device from > File -> Change Device menu helps. > > > Onkar > > -- > ubuntu-in mailing list > [email protected] > https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-in >
