So it does work like planned.

5. Audio Volume OSD works

I'm not sure which OSD you're talking about here. do you mean the kmilo one?
do you mean the one that comes from some laptop ACPI bios? Are those buttons
you press standard multimedia keys or are they some laptop vendor specific
keys that raise/lower mixer volume by hardware interference?

I assume that if you don't want the kmix popup but the kmilo one, then we have
to make sure that the right app uses the global keyboard shortcut.

does it work, when it broke for you, after executing ths command sequence:

killall kded
killall kmix
kded

dcop kded kded loadedModules | grep kmilo

?

There is also an issue of not having the mute option on the main channel
of kmix (pcm channel has the option), but I will make a separate thread
for that issue.

is that because your sound card doesn't have a mute on the main channel (some
newer cards have that issue, they only have mute on the headphone or the
speaker output, not on the "emulated" master channel)?

Thats an open, and known problem then.

Greetings,
Dirk
