Unfortunately, because the stream name includes the PID,

adjust the audio level at every program start, for the RX level.

Because there is a slider for the TX level in wsjtx, I can adjust it so
that the default level given by pulseaudio gives the output level which
I'm expecting. The slider for the input level has been suppressed in wsjtx.

Hi Claude,

the Qt naming of audio streams is not helpful but you should not need of adjust the Rx audio stream level in the digital domain, in fact doing so can only degrade the signal. Rx audio level adjustments must be made before the signal is digitized and any digital gain controls should be left at 100%.

The slider that used to exist in WSJT-X beside the thermometer level indicator never adjusted the levels fed to the decoders, it only adjusted the scaling of the thermometer indicator and the level fed to the waterfall and 2D spectrum plots. The slider was removed exactly because this sort of misunderstanding that it had any bearing on decoding.
