Hi all!
I've got this really strange problem, that you will probably laugh at, because it's kind of silly.
I've been having some problems configuring Pulse audio to work with ALSA applications (SDL games in fact) and I have messed a lot around the settings, followed "HowTo's", etc.
Bottom line is that in all this tinkering, my volume control keyboard shortcuts, all of a sudden started acting funny.
When I press "Fn + Vol up" or "Fn + Vol down" instead of controlling my output volume, Ubuntu is controlling the volume of the input device (my built in mic, or line in, or CD, or whatever is selected as default input in volume control).
Just to make things worse, this is the only way I have to quickly control the volume, since I'm running a laptop and it has no other sort of volume control.
I've tried to use the "System>Preferences>Keyboard Shortcuts", but to no avail.
The mute key is also attached to the mic rather than the speakers...
Anyone got any ideas?
Thanks in advance.
