Install gst-mixer either at root or yum extender. Then go to
system/preference/Advanced sound and there it is
Thanks for the pointers. I didn't have gst-mixer installed. But it
looks like a standalone mixer tool. I'd like to have a gnome panel
applet that I can use to easily mouse wheel up/down to change the
volume. Does gst-mixer or something else provide that? I'm not even
sure what the name of the volume applet was in F10 and earlier....
(And to clarify, sound is working fine.)
