Anyone know, please, what is required to make the settings in Mixer to *stick* and not be randomly altered by something in 13.2?
If you had the expected behaviour prior to 13.2, you must, at some point, have set "flat-volumes = no" is /etc/pulse/daemon.conf - once this is done, all mixer inputs and outputs are independent of each other and retain their values from session to session (at least, they do here.) When enabled, "flat-volumes" re-adjusts all inputs/outputs when you change one, supposedly to maintain the balance between them. The actual result is that volumes gradually reduce and need to be regularly reset. Apparently, this is the way Windoze does it, so the PA devs thought they should too. I disagree - a set level should stay set until *I* change it. For me, PA is the easiest way to balance audio from different application or hardware sources and route them for recording/playback to multiple hardware/software sinks. Dx
(There have been posts in this mail list from people who suddenly found that they had no sound. I think that the answer to my question would also solve their problem.)
