16:04 <oblikoamorale> oh, 12.0.2 is tagged. sneaky

19:14 <FatalFUUU> Whats the underlying audio system - alsa? Libreelec is always quiet compared to everything else (consoles, other computers etc) so have to increase the volume. The GUI volume is relatively high - and the volume amp option makes hte audio go funny. Its been like this on 2 TVs and 2 separate Intel NUCs (3rd gen and 9th gen). The same NUC with any old linux distro is not a problem either.

19:15 <FatalFUUU> No alsamixer otherwise id look at that

19:15 <FatalFUUU> any suggestions?

19:27 <twnqx> pulse

19:30 <FatalFUUU> I had tried pacmd but says no daemon so assumed otherwise

19:31 <FatalFUUU> The only thing I can get to work is amixer -N set 'IEC958',0 1+ toggle to mute and unmute, putting 5%+ or 100% etc comes back with an error

19:31 <FatalFUUU> supposed to use -D pulse under amixer but doesnt like that

19:37 <FatalFUUU> pactl set-sink-mute default sink toggle other -volume options do nothing too

19:45 <twnqx> IEC958 is digital out, so no volume control

19:45 <twnqx> (only in the application, so kodi itself)

19:47 <twnqx> also, pulse is running as system only, not session, indeed. i do not really know my way around there

20:37 <FatalFUUU> twnqx: I did see somewhere they were set to 100% so makes sense
