If there's some hardware mixer value that Pulseaudio ignores, you have at least a workaround. | |

| Mar 6, 2017 at 16:30 | comment | added | dirkt | You can see in pacmd list-sinks that there is a base volume attribute for each sink, which is presumably set as reported by ALSA. This value determines what Pulseaudio thinks of as "100%" (or 0 dB, in their phrasing). If you can lower it, that should do what you want, but I don't know how the "reported by ALSA" works, exactly. | |
