Volumio Volume
Posted: 2021-01-26 16:05
Trying Volumio... (quietly)
I made the mistake of setting mixer type to none from hardware, which left me with about half volume playback... I got volume control back (eventually) but it was a 2-step process of selecting hardware mixer type again, then restarting, then selecting mixer control name PCM to finally get Volumio back to playback at 100
(I say 2-step if I ignore all the empty rabbit holes of mpd.conf; mpc; alsa, etc... none of which affect Volumio volume that I could find)
Digging into the Hakai archives, I see that Volumio volume control is a bit of a minefield - did anyone get the playback volume default set to 100 except with the Volumio mixer enabled? I'd like to try Volumio with mixer type none, but at full playback output.
