Bug ID: 388553
Summary: VolumeObject::volume() should probably use
pa_cvolume_max instead of the avg
Product: plasma-pa
Version: unspecified
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: now...@gmail.com
Reporter: zrenf...@gmail.com
CC: plasma-b...@kde.org
Target Milestone: ---
Right now, the "master channel" uses the pa_cvolume_avg of all channels.
https://github.com/KDE/plasma-pa/blob/master/src/volumeobject.cpp#L41
The avg is also used in setGenericVolume too in context.h
https://github.com/KDE/plasma-pa/blob/master/src/context.h#L99
If you set the left channel to 50% and leave the right channel at 100% (via
pulseaudio etc), the "master channel" will be the average of 75%. If you then
raise the "master channel" by 10%, you raise the right channel to 110%.
Video: https://streamable.com/2kp7m
Ideally the "master volume" should be the maximum channel volume so that you
can't unintentionally boost a channel over 100%.
I can probably try making a diff + testing myself, I just wanted to confirm
this isn't some weird linux convention first.
