| llwalahoop | It seems to be quite slow here.. Anyway I have a clean install of Lubuntu on a laptop HP655. I can't find a volume switch anywhere in the panel (or systray). Anyone have an idea how to get it there? So far I have no sound at all. | 10:26 |

| llwalahoop | I have no volume control. How can I get to changing volume? I'm running Lubuntu on HP655 laptop. | 20:58 |
| ianorlin | llwalahoop: you can open a termianl and run alsamixer | 20:59 |
| ianorlin | or if you want the applet you can right click on lxpanel | 21:00 |
| llwalahoop | ianorlin: I have a Volume Control visible in Panel Preferences, but it doesn't show. Any idea how to proceed? | 21:06 |
| ianorlin | llwalahoop: what version of lubuntu is this? | 21:06 |
| ianorlin | also is this a virtual machine? | 21:06 |
| llwalahoop | 14.04 | 21:06 |
| llwalahoop | sry I do not know what virtual machine means. | 21:07 |
| ianorlin | ok then you are not if you don't know what that is | 21:07 |
| llwalahoop | :) good! | 21:07 |
| ianorlin | llwalahoop: so sound comes out but you can't turn the volume up or down to be correct | 21:07 |
| llwalahoop | ianorlin: Oh, I have no sound at all. | 21:08 |
| llwalahoop | I can't even find the sound card in system profiler. | 21:09 |
| ianorlin | ah glad I clarified as that is a differnt problem | 21:09 |
| ianorlin | llwalahoop: does this machine have an hdmi port? | 21:09 |
| llwalahoop | Sorry! | 21:09 |
| llwalahoop | yes it does | 21:09 |
| ianorlin | llwalahoop: are you trying to output sound through speakers or headphones? | 21:10 |
| llwalahoop | speakers | 21:10 |
| ianorlin | not connected to say an hdmi monitor | 21:10 |
| llwalahoop | I haven't tried headphones. | 21:10 |
| ianorlin | oh it might be trying to use the hdmi as default | 21:10 |
| llwalahoop | no, not connected to anything | 21:10 |
| wxl | it's more of a question of which sound card is default, llwalahoop | 21:11 |
| ianorlin | some people like to use pavucontrol to switch this easily | 21:11 |
| wxl | pavucontrol is often easier to grok | 21:11 |
| ianorlin | In my desktop machine I have a bios option to turn of the integrated hdmi audio | 21:11 |
| llwalahoop | ianorlin: wxl: alsamixer shows that default card is "-" | 21:12 |
| llwalahoop | ianorlin: wxl: Brilliant! pavucontrol gets me there. | 21:28 |
| llwalahoop | I only wish to have a control in the panel. Is there a way to do that? | 21:29 |
| wxl | llwalahoop: it should work now. try it again. | 21:29 |
| llwalahoop | wxl: Just to make sure: are we talking Panel Applets? | 21:32 |
| wxl | llwalahoop: yep. | 21:32 |
| llwalahoop | and plugins? | 21:33 |
| llwalahoop | wxl: For I still can't make it visible in the panel :| | 21:34 |
| llwalahoop | wxl: ianorlin: Thanks a mil! A reboot was needed, now everything seems to work as it should. | 21:39 |
