Description

Is any volume changed on the sound hardware? Try to run alsa-info.sh (with --no-upload option) before and after changing volume keys, and compare the generated files. The script is found at /usr/share/doc/packages/alsa directory. Since it's T61, this might be related with bug#389178. Created attachment 227088 [details]
alsa-info-full-volume.txt
this is when the volume is set to 100%
Created attachment 227089 [details]
alsa-info-barely-any-volume.txt
volume set fairly low (<= 10% ish, hitting volume-down keyboard button 1 more time sets it to 0% and mutes)
Created attachment 227090 [details]
alsa-info-muted.txt
and one more for good measure... here it is with the same low volume as the previous one, but after I hit the mute button
hope that's what you needed. Hm, it changes "Beep" volume/switch. Did you configure it anywhere? Anyway, reassigned to mobile team. The volume button handling on this device is not the part of the sound driver... I have a similar problem with my acer aspire 5710-6139, sound intel hda ich7. Under suse 10.3, alsa 1.0.15, the volume button and the mute button in the keyboard worked fine, also showing the volume level change in the panel. However, under suse 11.0, this controls did not work anymore, although I can control the sound level with kmix without problems. feji, is this still happening? Couldn't reproduce on 11.1. Moving to 11.1. sadly still happens on os11 for me :( any idea what versions of which packages I should check that I have? I think my system is mostly up-to-date (I zypper up fairly frequently) No, I'm pretty clueless unfortunately. We have a lot of ThinkPads, but none of them show the symptoms you've described in the bug. As the OSD is popping up it seems that the volume keys are recognized correctly. Could you please verify * that it also doesn't work for a new user (to make sure it's not a configuration problem * that gnome-keybinding-properties shows the correct assignments for the volume keys the keybindings are set to: Volume mute: 0xa0 Volume down: 0xae Volume up: 0xb0 Both my account and a newly created account seem to use the above bindings. Is that what they should be? hmmm, it does work for a new user account but not for my account :( (In reply to comment #11 from Jeffrey Stedfast) > the keybindings are set to: > > Volume mute: 0xa0 > Volume down: 0xae > Volume up: 0xb0 If we're talking about 11.0 -- yes. If we're talking about 11.1 -- no (there's a separate bug report for it, couldn't find it, JPR should know) > Both my account and a newly created account seem to use the above bindings. Is > that what they should be? Try to reassign the hotkeys and check if this helps. > hmmm, it does work for a new user account but not for my account :( Yah, that's odd. So the bug must be somewhere in GNOME. I'm not sure where exactly. As the OSD is working I assume it breaks at the component in GNOME which does the actual volume adjustments. Reassigning. I'm using 11.0 (In reply to comment #12 from Timo Hoenig) > If we're talking about 11.1 -- no (there's a separate bug report for it, > couldn't find it, JPR should know) That's bug 433553. But I think it is unrelated to your issue, feji. Sounds like a gnome-settings-daemon or pulseaudio issue. Rodrigo would be better for this. But to be honest, I doubt it will get fixed in 11.0 if it works in 11.1 (and as far as I know, this works in 11.1). Have a similar problem with the following config: OpenSUSE 11.1 Lenovo T61 The volume keys (up/down/mute) were working with OpenSUSE 11.0. In the "Volume Control" app, I see that the keys are controlling the microphone (the controls for the mic moves in tandem with the keys) rather than the PCM or Master. Holger, is it a duplicate of bug 462640? (note that the bug entry is for SLED.) About the comment#7, the problem remains in OS11.1. How can I check/alter the keybindings? thank you! No, that's not a dup of bug 462640. I'm not an pulseaudio developer, but from a user's point of view, you can select the "device" which gets controlled by the keys in the volume applet's preferences. It's set to "master" here where it works. OK, reassigned to GNOME guys... what about the KDE guys? :) The version with which you had the bug is now obsolete. I'll close this as NORESPONSE. If you can still reproduce it in current 11.4, please reopen the bug and move it to the appropriate version. Thanks! |
