I can change the master volume with these commands (from the command line), and it affects all applications, but how do I change the volume for just one application (
XMMS
for example)?
amixer -q set Master toggle # or pactl set-sink-mute 0 toggle
amixer -q sset Master 5%+ unmute # or pactl set-sink-volume 0 -- -5%
amixer -q sset Master 5%- unmute # or pactl set-sink-volume 0 -- +5%
pacmd dump #
is interesting, and there are GUI applications that can do this: gnome-control-center sound
, pavucontrol
