well GC i am using this on a Mac laptop with Ubuntu 14.04 and i am pretty sure it has not moved since i set it to maximum volume
maybe it is different on a PC no doubt someone will come along with a permanent way to fix that for you ... i do not know where the changes are kept on the system as yet .... any of you learned chaps?
EDIT
looking around I found this might be of use [i have not tested it] if it remains after reload and there must be a way to make that constant
You can do it using PulseAudio itself . If you have only one soundcard you may use pactl:
Code:
pactl set-sink-volume 0 +10%
This makes the volume 10% up.
If you want it 10% down:
Code:
pactl set-sink-volume 0 -- -10%
If you need to rock the entire place:
Code:
pactl set-sink-volume 0 150%
EDIT 2
to do with pavucontrol settings remaining after a reboot i tested it on my PC and it remained even on one specific player [vlc] so maybe it is meant to remain once set; something might be resetting your setup which should not and again sorry no clue as to what ...
