I am listening to audio with headphones attached to my Lenovo Thinkpad docking station. The output device is "ThinkPad OneLink Plus...". However the volume control, both the keyboard volume keys and volume button on the indicator panel, work only on the "Built-in Audio" (presumably the computer itself) and does not have any effect on the volume. Is there a way to change this, perhaps setting the other one as the default? (xUbuntu 16.04)
1just a guess: click the green circle icon with a white tick next to the ThinkPad OneLink+ Stereo entry to make it the default output device – guest-vm – 2018-04-26T12:20:25.920
And if you don't want to make the Dock the default audio device, there are plenty of tutorials (google) how to customize audio controls - basically you use
pacmd
orpactrl
, and intercept media keys in the window manager. That's how I do it withfvwm
; no idea what desktop/window manager xUbuntu uses. – dirkt – 2018-04-26T12:24:12.157
