Quick Settings Output Volume Not Working

[Heus-Sueh]

pwvu would be the gtk4 version of pavu, so I thought it would be interesting that it had an integration with this project
https://github.com/saivert/pwvucontrol

One way to integrate these apps would be to add an arrow at the end that would open one of the apps available on the system, like this:

Hey.

So we already have the in-panel mixer which accomplishes the routing aspect of pavu.
The idea behind that mixer was to make it so you don't need to open up a separate program.

I'm not sure if there's a big benefit here 🤔

I understand, for now I'm having a bug where the default audio device is wrong and so changing the audio volume doesn't help anything

off-topic: could you enable the discussions tab for me and other people to ask questions without polluting the issues?

[ldelossa]

@Heus-Sueh can you set the default audio device via wpctl ?

And yup, discussions are now enabled.

I set my headset as default, but I still couldn't change the volume using the wayshell, just mute it, using wpctl set-volume I can change the volume and the slider in quick-settings moves too

Are you able to show a quick screen capture with the issue?

The audio doesn't seem to have changed during the recording, but on my side the audio was reduced using the command wpctl set-volume 48 0.3

Hmm, so that slider on the main quick settings window will only track the 'default sink' which is reported by WirePlumber. If you open up the mixer (little speaker button) and expand your nodes, which sliders are moving?

The slider that allows me to change the volume and which is my heaset is: ALC892

I can change the volume through pavu and the slider in quicksettings corresponds, but I can't do the reverse

@Heus-Sueh Thanks I see the issue.

Do you think you can grab some logs for me, while you're sliding that does nothing?

Unfortunately, from the logs everything looks correct.

I can see we identify your default sink as 48.

I also cant reproduce this locally, as my default sliders will update the appropriate output in pavucontrol.

It maybe worth debugging a bit in the code itself, but youd need to build it locally. Is that possible?

I don't think I can, I don't know if it's just a matter of giving the make command in the project directory or there are some extra steps, I think this is a good opportunity to add how to do this in the readme

way-sh volume can also change the volume, perhaps the quicksettings slider and way-sh volume are not using the same function as they should
