Bug ID: 495980
Summary: Volume or recording levels of audio devices
reproducibly change to undesirable values under
certain circumstances
Classification: Plasma
Product: plasma-pa
Version: master
Platform: Fedora RPMs
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org
Reporter: n...@kde.org
CC: isma...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
In two specific circumstances, my audio devices' volumes get changed from what
I had them set to last time to an undesirable level:
1. Whenever I plug in my external screen which includes a built-in microphone
(it's this thing:
https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1718042-REG/hp_4q8n9aa_aba_24_qhd_90hz_hdr400.html),
the volume level of my laptop's internal microphone drops to 14%, forgetting
the level I had it at before (typically 53%). I prefer the laptop's internal
mic, so as a result, no one on video calls can hear me until I remember to
raise the recording level to 53% again.
2. Whenever I connect to my Bluetooth speaker amplifier, its volume is changed
to 100%, forgetting the level I had it at before (typically 20%). In this case
it's actually dangerous because 100% damages the speakers' tweeters. So I have
to remember to pause or mute before connecting, then connect, then change the
volume level back to 20%, then play or unmute.
Both issues reproduce on my wife's laptop which is the same model as mine, but
runs released Plasma on Fedora KDE 40 (I run git master everything on Fedora
KDE 41).

If these are different issues, let me know and I'll open a new bug report for
one or both. I can supply whatever logging is needed to debug it.
