How do I get the volume control in the systray to control the PCM control instead of whatever other control it is presumably controlling?

Thanks!


The tiny volume control affects the "master" volume control; however, the master volume is bounded by the PCM volume (for PCM data--whatever that is), so if you turn the master volume up to 100%, but PCM is at 50%, you get 50% volume.

The solution would be to set the PCM volume to an acceptably high level, and save the volume state using "alsactl store"; I think that KDE might have a separate way to manage mixer state persistence, so you may have to investigate that too.
