Wrong device gets volume adjusted.
Manage to trigger it after I reloaded udev and triggered rules. Video of the volume control not changing the correct device. |

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Linux/KDE Plasma: 6.5.0-1-amd64, debian trixie (available in About System) KDE Plasma Version: 5.27.8 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.107.0 Qt Version: 5.15.10 Got carried away, generally it sometimes seems to work in a way that makes it so it never changes to the other device for volume switching.

Manage to trigger it after I reloaded udev and triggered rules.
when you manually change the output device it won't automatically change the device which changes volume until you manually change the volume This is how I trigger it on my device: STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Disconnect usb-c dongle. 2. Reboot/reload and trigger UDEV. 3. Connect usb-c dongle. 4. Change default device. 5. Volume won't change on default device until user manually moves the volume slider. 6. From now on volume change after switching a default device the dongle has a slight delay, before correct device gets it's volume change. This consistently happens for me. For me to reproduce: - Have output going via HDMI/DP. Changing volume works correctly. - Plug in headphones - Manually switch default output device to headphones. - Audio output correctly switches to the headphones. - Observe ear drums being blown out from headphones defaulting to 100% - Rush to change volume using keyboard multimedia keys - Observe HDMI volume being changed, not headphones. Interestingly, if I change the device volume slider manually, everything starts working properly and the volume controls start targeting the correct device again. This started the same time as https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=473203, suggesting it might be a behavioural change in Pipewire.

(In reply to Nate Graham from comment #5) > Can you reproduce the issue when you switch devices using the "PulseAudio > Volume Control" app, and not Plasma's audio volume widget or System Settings > Page? I can! Exactly the same behaviour. I recorded it, I'll attach the video. Created attachment 162276 [details]
Video of the volume control not changing the correct device.
Ok thanks. That means this is an upstream PulseAudio or PipeWire bug. So whichever of those you're using, please report it to them at either https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/pulseaudio/pulseaudio/-/issues or https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/pipewire/pipewire/-/issues. Thanks again! |
Created attachment 161940 [details] Wrong device gets volume adjusted. SUMMARY See video. I couldn't always trigger it. Sometimes it's just a temporary thing in a delay manner(like in range of XXXms). I tested it out outside of the video. It's enough of a delay that I can click a button on my touchpad, move that same left hand to volumeUp/Down media key on my laptop(without much of a hurry). In my case the media keys are on the same spot as F2/F3 so one hand can click the button, the other click the media keys. I only noticed, because I connected my dongle. Present in the video is htop with PSI stats. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. 2. 3. OBSERVED RESULT See video/summary.
