I'm not entirely certain this is a great test case but given that the sound is not 0% with Ubuntu 20.04 LTS, I believe it is.
kvm -m 4096 -boot d -cdrom ubuntu-20.04-desktop-amd64.iso -nic none -soundhw hda -hda /srv/vms/groovy.qcow2 Sound is not at 0. kvm -m 4096 -boot d -cdrom groovy-desktop-amd64.iso -nic none -soundhw hda -hda /srv/vms/groovy.qcow2 Sound is at 0, with both of these I was using the Ubuntu Desktop iso. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to alsa-driver in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1897934 Title: The initial sound level is set to zero (mute) Status in alsa-driver package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in pulseaudio package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: On boot into the live session - or on first install the sound level is muted. I have to use GNOME Control Center - Sounds to change to an appropriate level. Once changed the level chosen is correctly retained between reboots.
