Further to my previous mail about trouble with Pulseaudio:
I installed pavucontrol-qt
pavucontrol-qt has the fallback button working clearly as shown in the
video below.
while pavucontrol has it cemented and bricked for all devices on as
default fallback devices.
Here is a video that the qt version is switchable
"http://grossmann-venter.com/issues/pulseaudio/pavucontrol-tk_fallbackswitchable-2019-02-07_18.34.42.mp4";
As is now if i uninstal pavucontrol and install pavucontrol-qt, then
sound dont work at all. How do I replace pavucontrol that comes with
stretch with pavucontrol-qt, which seemingly doesnt have this
button-bug.?
As I mentioned before pavucontrol, cycles through all my audio out put
devices when playing an album from clementine.
First Song .. through my external sound card
2nd song: ....through my monitor speakers.
3rd song .... through my Digitech RP1000 into my guitar amp . Jeeziz !
that gave me a scare first time it happened.
This pavucontrol button mess really needs to be fixed.
Fallback is really not a good option and this kind of automation goes
wrong quickly.
#What follows is not intended to be a flame. I just see that as a
serious issue therefore the direct addressing and there is no other way
to put it.
I would appreciate it if someone could direct me how to get
pavucontrol-qt installed properly as there is no sound without
pavucontrol.
The fallback butto I kindly ask to be addressed. It is not pleasant
having your head rammed through your monitor when pavucontrol
automatically decides it is fallback time and decides it should now
switch to your marshall 100W stack.
I mean you have this 100% volume " level, because you believe users
should not damage their ears, and I understand that, but if you want ear
damage for your users, then please keep the default fallback option
cemented on as it is in pavucontrol right now. It needs to be hard
removable in a config PLEASE!
The consequences of that button-cement causes great damage. Just be
consistent. If you want to keep the "100%" volume limit then also please
remove the fallback option as it is WORSE damage to the unsuspecting
user.
There are several bugs with pavucontrol I will list in separate mails
====================================================
Previous mail:---------------------------------------
I have the situation here that as soon as clementine finishes a song
pulseaudio switches from my speakers to another output device.
In the mixer for pulseaudio it indicates the other device as a fallback
device for output.
The fallback icon unfortunately cannot be changed.
I looked in the config file in /etc but could not find something that
will fix this.
Second prise would be for the fallback buttons to work in the pulseaudio
mixer and not always on. and unswitchable.
First prize would be to be able to have just a single output device,
.... my speakers.
