Volume control on debian system? (Was: Bug#985666: alsa-utils: no sound after installation)



Hello,

Nick Gawronski, le mer. 24 mars 2021 20:57:57 -0500, a ecrit:

Not necessarily 100%, because that might be way too loud for some
setups.

But it should be possible for the user to be able to raise to 100%
easily. I see that I had made that possible only for the installer,
because there you cannot easily use a mixer, and for the installed
system rather let alsa scripts set it up. The rationale I had taken note
of was that the speakup-provided volume control was perhaps not precise
enough. Indeed, once you make espeakup control the card volume, you
cannot tune it with a mixer any more since espeakup will try to override
it over and over.

So the question is raised: are people fine with the granularity that the
speakup shortcut provides in the Debian installer?
