Installing Tizonia messes with the Pi's function as a bluetooth speaker #593

Issue Template

Description

After installing Tizonia (no other changes were made to Raspbian), Raspbian no longer sends to the output stream what is being received through bluetooth. Pavucontrol shows that an input stream is being received, but no output to the USB soundcard is detected. Pulling the USB soundcard in and out solves this problem, but the sounds goes away again on the next song/track.

No sound issues are present when running Tizonia from the command prompt.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Use a phone to connect via bluetooth
  2. Play a song

Expected behavior: Raspbian receives the sound input through bluetooth and outputs it to the USB soundcard to the speakers

Actual behaviour: No sound is heard; pavucontrol shows that no waveforms/signal are emitted/received.

Reproduces how often: [What percentage of the time does it reproduce?]

This was a bit of a stupid question. I had the time to mess around with the Pi and realised that reducing the volume via Tizonia using the +/- keys causes the PCM volume output to be overwritten - alsamixer doesn't allow the volume to be changed. However, reopening Tizonia and maxing the volume solved this problem - in reality what was happening was that a inordinately small volume was being put out. Could you share how volume is controlled within Tizonia and if there is a way to overwrite this rather than using the +/- commands within Tizonia please?
