No control over sound

Post by PetrS »

When I use Wine, volume is set to max, but even if I turn the volume in system to 0, it is still loud and nothing changes.

What program do you use to turn down the volume?
There are different sound servers in Linux. Often PulseAudio is used, but Alsa, Pipewire or JACK are also common. Fortunately, most audio mixers work with different sound servers. Try alsamixer or pavucontrol and check that you are muting the right channel.

What are the audio settings in Wine? You can check them with winecfg → Audio.
