Bug ID: 491908 Summary: Volume level reset to 100% after screen is turned off Classification: Plasma Product: plasma-pa Version: 6.1.2 Platform: Arch Linux OS: Linux Status: REPORTED Severity: normal Priority: NOR Component: general Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org Reporter: m...@iyanmv.com CC: isma...@gmail.com, m...@ratijas.tk Target Milestone: --- SUMMARY I think this is related to the already reported Bug 490017, but I open this one since there are two different issues so it's easy to track, although I suspect the underlying bug is causing both. I also found out a way to reliably reproduce the issue all the times. The problem is that no matter what the volume is (it can be muted, 10%, etc.), after the screen is turned off (e.g., by pressing Esc after locking the screen), the volume after logging back in is always 100%. This happens whenever my laptop is connected to an external screen or docking station. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Connect laptop to an external screen with HDMI/DP or via a docking station 2. Change volume to any desired value (or mute the HDMI/DP device) 3. Lock the screen (Super + L) 4. Press Esc (this turns off the screen) 5. Press Enter to wake up the screen 6. Log in and observe volume of HDMI/DP, which is now 100% OBSERVED RESULT Volume level not restored after screen turns off. This does not happen if session is locked, but screen never turns off (via Esc or after 1 minute by default). In addition, built-in laptop speakers are not visible (see Bug 490017). EXPECTED RESULT Volume level is restored independently if the screen turns off or not. Also, the built-in speaker should be listed, and the user could choose the audio output to be the built-in speaker rather than the external device.
