When I move Skype volume has no effect

[Lo-lo78]

Hi Oleksandr, there is a problem with the Skype volume; it doesn't always work and above all two volumes of Skype come out. Yesterday I was in a conference and had two Skype volumes, both of them were at 100. My default Skype volume is at 50. Neither volume had any effect in the conference audio. Regards!

Hi The following changes have been made - e1e7d58d827fe34029541 :

• fixed bug duplication of audio sessions for one running process; For some reason, one running process can create multiple audio sessions. For example, Skype creates two or three audio sessions with the same name during a call. Only one audio session is currently displayed, which is related to the running process. The volume control also works.

• the event_gainFocus () method, which tracks programs in system focus, is simplified as much as possible. Earlier in the add-on in this method there occurred uncertain errors.

• the list of audio devices is scanned the first time user access them, not at the NVDA startup; This removed the short pause that occurred during the launch of NVDA.

• overriding the default output device in another way if the first attempt was unsuccessful;

• improved code of add-on settings panel and many smaller changes.

Please, try to update the add-on.

I hope now the add-on will work more stably. Have a nice week! Oleksandr

For some reason, this behavior happens only with Skype. I added a checkbox in the settings panel to be able to hide duplicate audio sessions. As for adjusting the volume for the Skype process - for some reason it works from time to time... Unfortunately, I have not yet been able to understand the reason for this behavior. This is due to the peculiarities of the pycaw module used in the add-on.

Updated version here.
