Personally, I like to use pavucontrol (Pulse Audio Volume Control). I have 2 Audio Output Devices. One is the built-in audio device on my mother board, the other HDMI audio out on my nVidia card. With pavucontrol I can select which device I want a particular application to use and I can mute and adjust volume individually. My headphones are out of order at the moment due to the cord being chewed by a cat and I don't need it....but if I plugged it in I would have a 3rd output device and could assign it on a per application basis. -- Fedora Users List - The place to go to speculate endlessly
