Is there a quick way to increase volume beyond 100%?

Post by orschiro »

On Ubuntu you can enable a setting that allows you to quickly increase volume beyond 100% using the special keyboard volume keys.

Is there a similar feature available in 18.3 Cinnamon?

Thank you! :-)

Click the speaker icon on the lower right side of your screen -->sound settings. Here you can increase volume beyond 100%
If I have helped you solve a problem, please add [SOLVED] to your first post title, it helps other users looking for help.

I see now way at all to control the volume level in this manner,

all I get is "Configure" and there all I get is mute input or output,

does not show anyway to set the volume level.
