Fix for error in Low Volume Fix (solved)

Post by stevie pup »

In the "Getting Started" section there is a topic created by @rockedge titled "Low Volume Fix", which I've just tried but didn't work initially.

Under method 2 it states to open terminal and enter "alsamixer -D equal", which I did. All I got was a load of error messages. Anyway, looking at the options it gave I changed it to "alsamixer -V equal" and it worked perfectly.

This was in Fossapup64 9.5 by the way. Thought this may be of help to anyone else left scratching their heads. Perhaps @rockedge could confirm that the D does need to be changed to V, and that it's not just me (not impossible).

@rockedge Thanks, glad to do my bit when I can. I don't get chance very often, most people's questions are far too technical for me. :oops:
