So this gnome-volume-control in Ubuntu 9.10 decided to be disgusting and insult my freedom to not use Pulseaudio. And I hate it. I can't get anything to work properly with it. Anyway. Is there a way to make gnome-volume-control (and gnome-volume-control-applet) to use just ALSA instead of Pukeaudio like in the good old Jaunty? -------------------- Reference Mickeysoft Internet Explorer MKE cat /usr/share/icons// > /dev/dsp NOW IS EXCITING COMING Johto > Hoenn > Sevii > Sinnoh > Kanto

**** pulseaudio

I personally just run gmixer in the tray, which is more or less the same as gnome-volume-control-applet (and gnome-volume-control if you double click on it). it mixes on whatever device gstreamer is configured to use, regardless of backend.

Yes. But when it's in use, nothing works but gnome-volume-control: LMMS produces no sound, JACK crashes, etc.

I have uninstalled it. Everything works but the volume control.
