SUMMARY When I switch to another default sink (from BT speaker to built-in 3.5mm audio output), volume changes through hotkeys and applet scroll wheel still change volume of previous sink. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Connect to BT audio 2. Switch sinks (either through pactl or via applet; didn't matter for the result) to built-in audio 3. Try to change volume OBSERVED RESULT Volume for BT changes EXPECTED RESULT Volume for built-in audio should change instead SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Operating System: Arch Linux KDE Plasma Version: 5.27.7 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.108.0 Qt Version: 5.15.10 Kernel Version: 6.1.45-1-lts (64-bit) Graphics Platform: X11 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION I use pipewire (and, as a consequence, pipewire-pulse compatibility layer) of version 0.3.77
Created attachment 161053 [details] The applet in a bugged state. The three "Headphone" sinks all come from the same headphone. The two 40% cannot be changed, but the 30% can I am also experiencing this bug. It did not occur from upgrading the applet's version. I believe it might have been caused by my upgrading Pipewire 0.3.74 -> 0.3.77 but I am not 100% sure. I am experiencing it from connecting & disconnecting my bluetooth headphones. Every time they connect, a new sink appears in the applet, but the old one is not removed. Sometimes, multiple sinks appear to be selected. The volume of the newest sink can be changed, and this does actually affect the headphones, but the other ones cannot. The volume keys pop up saying that they changed from one of the duplicate volumes by +/- 5%, but the volume is not actually changed.

The issue you're describing is a different one than the bug reported here, and it's tracked in https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=473093. As you suspect, it was caused by the update on pipewire, but they've already fixed it for their next version (https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/pipewire/pipewire/-/issues/3414) I'll hide your and my comments to not confuse readers of this bug report. Thanks!
