Hi, I have a nice USB headset that I use for VoIP calls. It does insulate a great deal from my noisy colleagues, but as a result I have to tweak the sidetone gain to hear my own voice (most headsets provide the capability of looping the mic input to the speakers with almost no latency). I can play with the 'Mic Playback Volume' in alsamixer, but I have to do this everytime I plug the headset. alsamixer doesn't remember the value, nor does pulseaudio. Pulseaudio only stores the 'Mic Capture Volume' and the 'Speaker Playback Volume' (I found the names by playing with the values in alsamixer to set the sidetone gain to the max and zero the capture gain, see below) Any idea on how I can record my preferred setting once and forall? Is this best done at the pulseaudio or alsa level? Thanks -Pierre $ amixer -c1 contents numid=1,iface=MIXER,name='Mic Playback Switch' ; type=BOOLEAN,access=rw------,values=1 : values=on numid=2,iface=MIXER,name='Mic Playback Volume' ; type=INTEGER,access=rw---R--,values=1,min=0,max=464,step=0 : values=464 | dBminmax-min=-41.00dB,max=-12.00dB numid=5,iface=MIXER,name='Mic Capture Switch' ; type=BOOLEAN,access=rw------,values=1 : values=on numid=6,iface=MIXER,name='Mic Capture Volume' ; type=INTEGER,access=rw---R--,values=1,min=0,max=13,step=0 : values=0 | dBminmax-min=16.00dB,max=29.00dB numid=3,iface=MIXER,name='Speaker Playback Switch' ; type=BOOLEAN,access=rw------,values=1 : values=on numid=4,iface=MIXER,name='Speaker Playback Volume' ; type=INTEGER,access=rw---R--,values=2,min=0,max=44,step=0 : values=44,44 | dBminmax-min=-41.00dB,max=3.00dB
