Subject: A question regarding Startup Volume in LowLevel / FileVault Startup
Hello List,
Here’s an interesting situation that I’d like to bounce off all of you.
On one of our MBPs using FileVault and several accounts. Here’s the problem.
Say, I log in under my account using the VO prompts after hitting Command
F5. The machine requests the account name. Then I press enter and it asks
for password. Then I press enter and the machine gives three beeps or an
error message, in either case, the machine either starts or lets me give it
another try.
Ok., all’s well and fine.
Now for the problem.
User #3 gets on the computer and logs in. This user isn’t a VO user, so
volumes and things don’t really mean much. He logs in and in the course of
using the computer, for some reason he decides to reduce the volume to 0.
The problem is that when I go to log in as a VO user, I have no output info
regarding the state of things while using VO after Command F5.
So here’s the Billion Dollar question.
Does anyone know of any way to preset the volume level at the
FileVault/Recovery system level for VO users at a constant value, no matter
what any other users do. If the audio provided at this low level is
influenced by users after logging in, I kind of am a little curious as to
why this isn’t completely isolated from post boot conditions.
Again, does anyone have any suggestions as to how I could preset and lock
the Volume Level for Pre Unlock or Recovery modes?
For example something preset in terminal or in the ROM somehow?
Thanks in advance.
