I am still struggling with this. I have come to the conclusion that the only way that I personally am going to succeed with this is to edit a configuration file, but I cannot find what to edit to. I have found advice on editing the Pulse configuration file on the net, but what I have tried has not helped so I have gone back to the original vanilla file. What I need to do, it seems to me, since the n-curses alsamixer will not accept any alterations, is to edit a configuration file in such a way as to change the default. But searching for this has got me nowhere. Any suggestions, please? Many thanks, Lisi -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
