Sound volume is too low!
I installed Mint on a separate partition to try it, and my biggest complaint so far is sound. Everything works well, even Skype, but the volume is too low! It's low on Skype, MP3 music, Flash (Youtube), everything. I checked the volume on Kmix and dragged it all the way to the top, it was about 80% and I tweaked it to 100%, but it's still low. I also ran alsamixer, all the volume controls were at 100% already. Is there anything else I can do?

Do you have all of the volumes up like pcm, igain, ogain
Code:
$ mixer |
Code:
luc@mint ~ $ mixer Code:
luc@mint ~ $ mixer Code:
luc@mint ~ $ mixer /usr/share/sounds/k3b_success1.wav alsamixer shows everything at 100%. |
It seems to be a KDE 4 problem. Sound got a lot better after I installed Trinity/KDE 3.5. The Kmixer app even had a lot more options/devices/channels for my sound card.
KDE 4 sucks so bad it even messes up with sound support. As if sound support in Linux needed any more trouble... :( Marking thread as SOLVED. |
