Remembering mic settings with pulseaudio
by vladimir1986 from LinuxQuestions.org on (#5SMMM)
Hi there. Just to know if there is some way of sorting out a small nuissance I encounter every time I got a zoom class.
My laptop has a very handy mic on/off switch which I rather use than the software mute/unmute controls.
I found the volume soft spot (let's say that on my laptop is 40%) for the mic, between "I can't hear you" and "my ears are bleeding". However, pulseaudio defaults to 22%, which is "did I heard something?".
So, first time I want to talk, I need to manually select the desired volume, then mute the mic when I finished and wait for next time I need to talk...
Now, there is a random chance the volume will revert back to 20%, forcing me to increase manually again this is no constant and it might as well stay at the volume I did set it up.
My question: Is there any way of making it remember your desired values, like you can do with alsa?
