If there was a way to cap or lock the volume so that _no_ programs (like xmms or mplayer) could turn it higher. That would be great :) I don't know why all programs try to adjust the PCM instead of Master or any of the others. But a cap would be a start ;) ====================================================================== ---------------------------------------------------------------------- afran - 08-08-04 19:52 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Just wanted to say that I have the same problem here with my Soundblaster Live 5.1. Unfortunately, I don't know how to solve this: but in any case, internally mapping the before-mentioned 74% to a mixer setting of 100% could be a temporary solution. But of course, any real solution to this problem would be very nice. :-) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- rlrevell - 12-31-05 07:26 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Is this still a problem with the latest ALSA release? I cannot reproduce it (setting volume to 100% with my Audigy2 ZS is loud but not distorted). Make sure bass and treble controls are set to the middle position.
