The maximum level is defined in the tone-generator upstart session file (variable DTMF_VOLUME), as a percentage (0..100) of the system volume, (seems to be quite non-linear, e.g. 20 is way louder than 10). The volume slider is obeyed - but after reboot sometimes forgotten, see bug 598308. I'll give more detail after testing, but also cc:ing Ricardo, he is working on bug 598308 as well as the overall system default volumes. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1356428 Title: tone volume level should be reduced To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/tone-generator/+bug/1356428/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
