I have problems with my sound card, an Asus Xonar XD on Ubuntu 12.04 LTS. To hear something, i need to set Ubuntu's volume at 100% and speakers volume at 75%.
Ubuntu sound,
alsamixer.
At this moment i can barely hear something with some quality. But then, at the moment when I increased volume, like a 10% more, it sounds distorted.
How can i fix this?
Thx.
I recently installed a clean copy of 12.04. So far everything has worked reasonably well, but I have a problem with the volume. Unless I have the volume at 1/4, or above I don't get any sound. Above that the sound control is quite precise, but If I want the volume to be any lower (which I often do), I have to adjust the volume on the individual application I am using.
I installed Ubunut 12.04 64 bit, and it seems I can not adjust volume separately for headphones and laptop speakers.
If I plug my headphones in, I can hear sound through my headphones AND my speakers.
I need to restrict users so that they cannot output sound from built-in speakers. They should plug their headphones to hear any sound. They should be able to control headphone volume level, but not built-in speakers.
I need a command-line solution for automation purposes.
Is this possible (on Ubuntu 12.04)?
Hi,
I just got an old Trust surround USB Headset to work on Ubuntu 11.10.
However, the volume controls are bugged. Touching a slider in the taskbar or banshee in any way (even sliding it to the lower end) would set the volume to about 5000%. This usually causes me to jank the headset right off my head.
There is no gradient whatsoever in the slider.
Hello, I need an answer to my troubles. When I turn on the music player I can control the media volume with the volume controls on the side. When I close the media player the volume controls do not go back to controlling the ringer/notification volume (Sound/Vibrate/Mute). Instead they still control the media volume. Any suggestions?
Just installed F12 and noticed that the volume control applet is now all Pulseaudio rubbish, not Alsa like gmixer used to be.
So now I don't seem to be able to mute my speakers when I'm using my headset, which in F10 I could do by just muting LFE/Center.
It kicked in after upgrade to ubuntu 11.10
when I connect headphones, output channel (observed through control panel sound section) switches to headphones and volume level in headphones is extremely low
workarounds:
set output channel back to speakers.
I'm having trouble hearing anything at all under Fedora 16 on this Lenovo T520. Everything in alsamixer is at 100% (both pulseaudio and card). I installed Windows 7 on the laptop to check if the same issue is present on windows, and it's not.
Does anyone know how to deal with this?
