Assign Sound Output to Application

Post by Arminius von Xanten »

I have several sound devices in my PC and would like specific applications to put out their sound through different devices e.g Rhythembox to the stereo amp, video to the tv and browser to the monitor speakers. Is that possible with Isadora and if, how?

You need to investigate Pulseaudio Device Chooser and Manager, they should be in the Sound & Video menu but if not check they are not hidden in menu editor, otherwise in a terminal

Code: Select all

apt install padevchooser paman
[Edit] your original post and add [SOLVED] once your question is resolved.

“The people are my God” stressing the factor determining man’s destiny lies within man not in anything outside man, and thereby defining man as the dominator and remoulder of the world.

An old thread but I just tried your suggestion Remoulder and package: paman

"PulseAudio Manager" does exactly what I need it to do. Thank you very much! :)
