I'm experiencing almost no volume with youtube videos on f9.
Pulseaudio says the volume is at max. Is pulseaudio causing
this problem?
Thanks.
Hi Dave. I'm not too impressed with pulseaudio, but that aside, first try the
following command on KDE's Konsole, or Gnomes Terminal.
alsamixer -D hw:0
This will get you all of the alsamixer controls. There may may some control
that may be muted. Look for, Master, PCM, Front. The "M" key controls the
mute/unmute. Perhaps one of them just needs to be pushed up a bit.
If that doesn't fix anything you can disable pulseaudio by removing the
alsa-plugins-pulseaudio package. You can always re-install it later, if it
doesn't resolve the problem.
I have seen pulseaudio being responsible for low volume levels, and when
removed the volume comes back to normal.
Worth a try.
Nigel.
