Version: (using KDE 4.2.0) OS: Linux Installed from: SuSE RPMs I have a builtin Soundcard and two USB headsets. One of the USB Headsets has volume up/down keys, as does my keyboard. Both send the appropriate signals. The problem is, that the shortcut for Volume up/down can only be set for a single channel or soundcard. So if I plug in my headset and want to change the volume, only the onboard volume is changed. I could of course use systemsettings to explicitly set the keys to my headset, but if I use my speakers with my onboard sound card, I would have to change it back. There would be two solutions: 1. Make it possible that the volume of all installed/plugged in soundcards can be altered at the same time. 2. Make a shortcut that alters the master volume from the currently used soundcard.
Could you elaborate a bit what you mean with "currently used" soundcard? Used for what? System sounds, Video, Audio, whatsoever?!?

I won't do Variant 1, but Variant 2 would be the behavior desired by several users in Bug 181652 (marking this as duplicate). *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 181652 ***
