If I use a standard ALSA output (without PA) at 100% volume, I don't get static. Whether it's me setting the ALSA volume at 100% or PA setting the ALSA volume at 100% it should be the same thing, right? Yet I only get static through PA. -- Alex Malinovich Support Free Software, delete your Windows partition TODAY! Encrypted mail preferred.
