Summary | 0007798: sound - speaker and mic volume not persistent after logout | ||||
Description | If volume is changed during user session and user logs out - after login the volume is back to default | ||||
Steps To Reproduce |
| ||||
Additional Information | reproduced on two different laptops | ||||
Are you using the installed version or a live usb? |
|
Installed version |
|
did you tried to use alsamixer (alsa-utils) |
|
No, I didn't. Please elaborate. |
|
in alsamixer you can manage volume of all speakers mics that you have besides try using pavucontrol package to set volume on system sound and others or maybe your problem is in drivers ? |
|
Volume control works fine, I think the problem is not in the drivers but in the persistence of the set values, i.e it's reset to the default values after logout/login rather than being saved and stay persistent after logout/login (which I believe is the desired behavior - all other OS I've worked with have persistent volume) |
|
How are you changing the volume, and what desktop is this in? |
|
Volume bar at the top right or via keyboard Fn keys. I use Xfce desktop env. |
|
Have you tried moving your ~/.cache folder to a different name and see if that helps at all? Or possibly run pavucontrol from a terminal and see if it spits anything out when you try to change the volume? |
|
Actually - had another thought - does your root user have a ~/.config/pulse directory? |
|
I did what steev suggested, got this: |
|
When you say you do have ~/.config/pulse - are you saying for root? or just for your normal user? If root, can you try removing root's copy of ~/.config/pulse and then see if the changes stay persistent? |
|
Oh, you meant the actual root user? |
|
i have almost same problem instead of logging out when i change song on youtube volume in pavucontrol changes everytime |
|
Can you both try moving the ~/.config/pulse directory out of the way? Also, to be sure, can you please give us the output of |
|
mine output of dpkg -l | grep pulse : |
|
Moving the folder ~/.config/pulse didn't help. dpkg output: └─$ dpkg -l | grep pulse |
|
Can't reproduce in QEMU/KVM, sorry. |
