It is a shame that asoundconf setting, Sound Preferences (for keyboard volume change), Gnome Volume Control and Gnome Volume Applet (for mouse volume change) aren't connected and doesn't change automatically to active sound card. Another point is that it is best to use mixer PCM with integrated Intel sound card and Master with my Audigy2 for volume change but Gnome sound preferences doesn't save this per card so it have to be changed on every start with or without the external card by hand. I don't know but if it happens only on my system but if Audigy2 was the last active card after start without it sound works but Alsa doesn't so only one program can access sound card (through oss emulation I guess). This could be fixed through activating integrated sound card with asoundconf. I have made a userspace script for this issue. With it the correct sound card is activated, it is possible to change according mixer volume with keyboard and with Gnome volume applet. Of course everyone has to change settings according to his hardware configuration.
Wishlist: Asoundconf (Alsa), Gnome Sound Preferences, Gnome Volume Control and Gnome Volume Applet should be connected so that one activation with asoundconf is enough and used default mixer (for volume change through keyboard and with applet) should be saved per card. The best way gnome volume manager applet uses the same settings like gnome sound preferences so there is no unneeded double configuration and the preference got it from Alsa or something like that. ** Attachment added: "soundconfiguration.sh" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/9596738/soundconfiguration.sh -- Gnome Volume Control change device function has no effect https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/87909 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
