Hi everybody, I am the current maintainer of cmus console music player (and the author of its PulseAudio output plugin). Like every audio player, cmus displays the "volume control widget". Nothing unexpected here :-) But, in fact, this control serves dual purposes: it displays the current playback volume *and* it is used to indicate/configure the volume before the playback starts. But the problem is, as it seems to me, that with PA I have no way to display/configure the volume before the playback starts, if I want to take advantage of module-stream-restore (pass NULL volume to the pa_stream_connect_playback, which is "strongly recommended"). So, I either store the volume myself and pass it to pa_stream_connect_playback (which seems not to be the "true way"), or I display no volume control at all before the playback starts, which is kind of a nonsense. Am I right on this or not, and what is the preferred way to control the volume with PA? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? Gregory
