(xmms doesn't have this issue any more though.) > Yes there are several different kind of volume settings but they basically boiled down to two. 1. volume in gnome-mplayer is the same as the system volume as seen with oss, alsa (without dmix), pulseaudio >= 0.9.15 with flat volume enabled (default) 2. volume in gnome-mplayer is a percentage of the system volume alsa with dmix (I believe), pulseaudio < 0.9.15 with flat volume is disabled (flat volume only exists on 0.9.15 and higher) and mplayer softvol all of these combinations can make getting the volume "right" kinda of annoying. Also the fact that a volume knob is being altered from several locations (system volume, application volume, other mixer) can really lead to confusion as to which volume source is currently the right one.
