Speakers + Microphone Volume Reset #144

Closed rosenbergd closed 3 years ago

rosenbergd commented 3 years ago

Every time I start up, connect or disconnect headphones, my volume resets to 74%, I've also noticed the microphone is doing the same thing.

I'm not sure if this is a pulseaudio bug, but here are the logs from pulseaudio -vv which seems to show alsa increasing the volume to 74% after initially setting it to 25% which is the correct volume that it should be at:

I'm using Linux Mint 20.1 Cinnamon v4.8.6 Kernel v5.4.0-74 (but this was happening on -73 as well)

I updated some packages and noticed I had pipewire installed, although I've had it for a while and pulseaudio was working fine, I decided to try uninstalling (sudo apt purge pipewire), instead of uninstalling, it installed properly and replaced my pulseaudio (not sure how that works since I ran purge, but whatever).

Then after a reboot, the issue happened 1 more time and then after lowering the volume, all reboots afterwards seem to have fixed the issue, so this is likely some kind of conflict between pipewire and pulseaudio that was hidden until it suddenly randomly decided to start happening which made it difficult for me to realise what the issue was.

Now pulseaudio daemon is no longer running and has been fully replaced by pipewire and pipewire-pulse.

I'm keeping the issue open for a little while until I'm absolutely sure it's fixed, but it looks like it's fixed.
