Hi.
xfce4-mixer 4.10 wasn't giving me a choice to use the 'default' card
(pulseaudio). It used to in F17.
I even downgraded to v. 4.8 but it just shows the alsa card.
Of course even alsamixer shows the default pulseaudio card and
pnmixer too.

It never had the option to use 'default' card as long as I remember.

I'm sure it had (not that it was a reliable thing, as for you it already didn't give that option). Even xfce4-mixer itself could choose between both (just like alsamixer). Yesterday I was messing with my Xfce settings when after deleting some stuff I tried to reset the mixer applet to use the 'default' and it just showed the internal card. IDK if it's a gstreamer thing or whatever. I did remove some unused gstreamer packages I had after upgrading from F17 to F18 but they were just plugins, I think.
Anyway, I'm using pnmixer.

And recently the panel applet also seem to have dropped the option to
start pavucontrol on click (or I'm blind)...

Settings>Settings Editor, browser to xfce4-panel and change the call for xfce4-mixer for pavucontrol (or whatever you want).


It still looks like there's some bug somewhere as xfce4-mixer should
detect the default card.
More like a missing feature than bug, I think.


I'm not sure, because the author doesn't like pulseaudio. He said it doesn't play well with gstreamer in the distro he uses (Debian?).
