Hi guys,
The dB range of Playback Master of Sound Card is between -65.25 and 0.
I changed the sink volume to 8%, but the dB volume calculated by
function pa_sw_volume_to_dB is -65.82 dB, this will result in
no sound playing when the volume is between %0 and 8%.
I think this is an issue, but I don't understand the algorithm
principle of function pa_sw_volume_to_dB.
Would you please help to explain it, thanks a lot!
