Hi, After many "investigation" , I see that gnome-volume-control shows that I can pass maximum volume at 50 % than kmix . I want that others apps like kmix also can scale sound to what now is 150% with pulseaudio daemon in verbose mode D: alsa-sink.c: Requested volume: 0: 100% 1: 100% D: alsa-sink.c: Got hardware volume: 0: 100% 1: 100% D: alsa-sink.c: Calculated software volume: 0: 100% 1: 100% (accurate-enough=yes) with gnome-volume-control D: alsa-sink.c: Requested volume: 0: 106% 1: 106% D: alsa-sink.c: Got hardware volume: 0: 100% 1: 100% D: alsa-sink.c: Calculated software volume: 0: 106% 1: 106% (accurate-enough=no) so software volume: 0: can pass 100% !? Someone shows that is possible using softvols http://www.webupd8.org/2009/08/increase-maximum-sound-level-in-ubuntu.html and now I understand the is a problem only in kde that use kmix not gnome-volume-sound. Some one help me , to get kmix control of more 50 % of sound volume in my laptop ? Thanks, -- SÃrgio M.
