Volume change intervals?
by obscenelyappropriate on Sat Jan 19, 2013 2:02 pm
Okay, so whenever I press the volume up or down buttons on my laptop, the volume changes by 6% of max. I know Linux is open-source, so there must be some way I can change that, my question is how? I want to make it change by more around 2% or 4% because sometimes a jump by 6% takes it from quieter than I want to louder than I want or vice versa. Could someone please give me step-by-step instructions as to how to do this? Thanks.

I tried to change the volume step with gconf-editor.
Unfortunately, there is some bug in gconf-editor that doesn't make volume step configurable anymore. Look at the link below.
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=650371
There are also workarounds on this link below (take a look at people's comments).
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-settings-daemon/+bug/871133
I'll try again later to find solution for Cinnamon.
Perhaps the volume step is configurable on other desktop environments (like MATE through mate-conf-editor).
EDIT:
I tried to find a solution for Cinammon but no luck.
