Is it possiable to sync alsa volume with pipeware's volume
Hi!
I am currently using an external sound card (Apogee Groove) that has hardware volume control buttons. However, these buttons only affect the volume in ALSA and do not change the volume in Pipewire. I think the final volume may be the product of the two. Even though both controls change the volume I hear, the inconsistency bothers me -- gnome says 10% and the soundcard says 100%, and I don't know which button to reach for.
Volume in AlsaMixer, hardware button can control this:
But at same time, Volume in pavucontrol:
So the hardware volume control buttons can only control ALSA volume,
The ideal solution is to directly take the volume of the hardware like bluez.enable-hw-volume. But I find something in another issue:
Irrespective of whether you went with the Pro Audio work-around or the custom WP rule workaround afterwards PipeWire will not change the ALSA mixer settings for the device and it's on you to set them as you want them to be set via alsamixer.
So may be there is a way I can use some kind of wireplumber script to do this thing?
