[Bug 1436269] Re: When you select Analog Output or Speakers as port in Output Devices tab of pavucontrol, headphone levels are raised

 

I have passive speakers connected to the headphone connector. I want
output to headphone connector occur only, when analog-output-headphones
port is manually selected as the active port of the sink. Another use
case is that user wants to switch output to Headphones always, if they
are plugged in, and auto mute other outputs, too. I think that could be
done by automatically switching analog-output-headphones port as active
port of the sink - optionally. As third use case, sometimes you might
want to have simultaneous output to Line Out and Headphones output, but
then you may want to change their volumes independently.

Title:
  When you select Analog Output or Speakers as port in Output Devices
  tab of pavucontrol, headphone levels are raised

Status in pulseaudio package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I expect that headphone levels are not raised, when Analog Output or
  Speakers is selected as port.

  Please note, that Line out = analog output port is controlled by ALSA
  mixer track called PCM, whereas there should be a separate mixer track
  for it; see bug Bug #1433568
