https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=674935 et al. describe what happens due to flat-volumes = yes being the default. I've just experienced a similar problem with VLC in which I set the volume to 120% for a specific media file. This raised the sink volume permanently to 120%, thus causing other audio to clip until I manually undid this with pacmd. Fortunately I rely on the ALSA hardware volume for most of my output limiting.
Thus I _suspect_ that this can be merged with #674935. If the original submitter is still listening: what happens if you add flat-volumes = no to /etc/pulse/daemon.conf? ---> Drake Wilson -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
