Good question, yes they do. I found the problem: in the output tab of pa volume control, "jack sink" wasn't set to 100% volume, and I didn't see it, because it was hidden (I needed to scroll down). 1. I think this output should be set to 100% by default. 2. Another problem: all input clients don't get their volume preserved. I start jack and set spotify to 100%. Then stop jack, and the volume is set to 14% (almost unhearable). I set it to 100% again, then start jack. Volume is 14%. Stop jack, volume is 14%. Bug in spotify or pulseaudio? 3. Also, now that I can switch between audio outputs, I notice that when running output from audacity through pulseaudio jack sink I get better/clearer sound quality than when using pulseaudio analog output. Why? This can't be right. The sound file is 32-bit float. It seems to be the same with Spotify, although it's more difficult to compare because the volume is set to 14% every time I turn jack on/off. I have been blaming Spotify for the poor sound quality, maybe it's pulseaudio that's the culprit.</pre> </div> <hr> You are receiving this mail because: <ul> <li>You are the QA Contact for the bug.</li> <li>You are the assignee for the bug.</li> </ul> </body> </html>
