Subject: gnome-control-center: Multimedia volume control keys don't work
Date: Tue, 08 Dec 2009 22:59:20 -0800
Package: gnome-control-center
Version: 1:2.28.1-1
Severity: normal

Whenever I try to adjust the volume via the multimedia volume keys, a popup
dia
log shows the volume changing, but the change isn't reflected in the volume
app
let, sound preferences, or sound coming out of the speakers. It is as if
it's e
diting a completely different sound channel. I'm using pulseaudio.

Does it work with if you launch gnome-volume-control.gstreamer by hand?
Same question for gnome-volume-control.pulse.

Thanks,

I launched those utilities manually and played around with the different
audio channels in the gstreamer utility, and I seem to have found the
problem. I technically have 2 audio out devices: the sound system on my
motherboard and the HDMI output for my video card. It's using my
motherboard's sound for output, and both the volume applet and pulse volume
control utility adjust that output channel, but for some reason the media
keys were controlling the volume of my video card's HDMI output. From
gnome-volume-control.pulse I was able to disable my video card's HDMI output
and the media keys now effect the correct output channel.

Thanks for the help,
Aaron
