sound preferences

[geordiejohn]

hello when i first installed Ubuntu i went to the volume icon and then sound preferences and put up the volume but for some reason when i go to sound preferences it takes me to the control centre and i cannot see any way of turning the sound up,can someone please tell me how i can go back to clicking on sound preferences to turn the volume up ?
thank you.

i think you can hover over it and use the middle scroll on your mouse

i am using my Acer Aspire 5536 laptop and it does not have a middle scroll ?

I am not sure about the 5536, but I have an aspire 5535 laptop, and the volume buttons above the keyboard also control the volume in ubuntu

You can have a sound settings in control center.
But, when you click the sound applet on a panel it must present you with a sound bar to set a volume level for you. Doesn't it works for you?

[geordiejohn]

yes the sound bar is there and i have it on full,under the sound bar is system preferences and i used to be able to click on that and i could put the system volume up even further,but as i saiad when i click on system preferences now it takes me to control centre instead of system volume control ?
thank you.
