You abstract it and present it in the UI as a volume slider and a "tone"
slider.
hwvol = vol;
bassvol = vol * tone;
Which is the kind of stuff PA *should* be doing. But Stephen is a fringe
nutjob for owning such uncommon hardware, and PA is never going to
support it.
You have got to be freaking kidding me???
This is a major brand laptop - Dell Inspiron, not some bizarre uncommon
piece of HW.
Also, this used to work perfectly back in F8 or F9, and regressed (like
pretty much everything in Fedora).
And, FYI, I didn't come up with the WAR, but found it here:
