When using the phonon-backend-vlc with PulseAudio, the notication volume gets always reset to 100% after any notification event. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Open settings manager 2. Change anything 3. Switch to next tab without applying changes (so the notification event is fired) Actual Results: Volume is set to 100%. Expected Results: Volume level mustn't be changed. It's practically not possible to use headset. Every notification makes me deaf.
Same here with archlinux, plasma-desktop 5.4.1-2. This is a serious regression that is similar to https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=324975. Currently workaround is to disable PA's flat volume feature.
dups https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=345651, seems upstream.
I have the same problem here. How to we work around that, disabling PA's flat volume (if it really works) ?

Also seeing funkiness with volume in juk. Starts out loud, lower volume, next is quite. Then if I stop juk or it changes tracks at some point reverts back to full volume. Volume in kmix is different than show in plasma-pa.

This could be a different problem on account of showing different data between kmix and plasma-pa. The two do however calculate percentages differently, so it is hard to say for sure. If you are using the Phonon VLC backend I am however pretty confident that this is also a fallout from Bug #345651. Marking this bug as duplicate since the original issue described is a result of the aforementioned bug. FTR: we will hopefully have a solution for this with VLC 2.3 *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 345651 ***
