And I am sorry for my sarcastic post. Well. A little. ;-) Pulseaudio, a utility used to set different audio levels for different sources, works. For me.

Good that you solved your problem. -- David -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
