Hi all, I use XMMS to listen to music, while other sound enabled applications do their things. These other applications sometimes send sound warnings that I hear mixed along the music. The problem is that some applications have low volume samples that I can barely hear together with loud music. I wish I have a separate volume control for XMMS that would allow me to use a low volume for music background while other applications still use the default PCM volume. Since ALSA soft mixes everything (no hardware mixing for me), I thought I could define some ALSA device and tell XMMS to use it. After some reading, I managed to define a ALSA device and tell XMMS to use it, but I can't figure out how to associate a volume control to it. My mixer (gnome-volume-control) has lots of "useless" volume controls that I could use (specially one named "Aux"). Can anyone tell me how?
