Hy List,
I have some possible trivial questions with new gnome-volume-control
application since 9.10, and possible I nock opened doors. :-):-)
1. When I choosing Input Analog Stereo with gnome-volume-control
application hardware page, my speech is muted. I am using
Speech-dispatcher with Bill Cox first pulseaudio driver. Possible this
is right work (muted the speech when I choosing only input profile, not
output analog stereo input analog stereo profile)?
2. Oldest gnome-volume-control application (2.26 and lower versions) is
provide more settings, with now missing. For example: input source
setting, etc. For example my notebook have an Intel Corporation 82801H
(ICH8 Family) HD Audio Controller (rev 03 type sound card, and my
machine one Jack input provide linein or Microphone record, with
possible toggle what can I want. Alsamixer wonderful toggle this, but
now new gnome-volume-control application impossible to toggle this
setting. If I choosing with Input device with input page, only possible
setting the input volume.
Another example is my friend problem. He using an Audigy2zs notebook
sound card. Oldest gnome-volume-control application version he need
toggling the "tone" checkbox, if he using he sound card with 5.1 sound
preference. If he toggle the "tone" checkbox, not distorted the front
speaker if the tone checkbox is checked. Now, this checkbox is missing
he, only solving he problem is setting this mixer value with amixer with
gnome-terminal.
Have an useful tips or tricks to extend the builtin gnome-volume-control
features, or only working solution is installing gnome-alsamixer
application?
If I known right, this is not Ubuntu specific feature only, I think
gnome-volume-control application is redesigned with since GNOME-2.28
version. Is this correct?
For example, I read following bugreport:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-media/+bug/440465
This is not full related with my described problems, because I not want
remove pulseaudio, because wonderful work Bill Speech-dispatcher driver
my machine. But, if I known right, if I compiling gnome-media package
with --disable-pulseaudio toggle, possible get back old
gnome-volume-control user form.
Not possible do different gnome-media packages, one with using
Pulseaudio and one with compiled disabled pulseaudio flag?
