If i am playing a video or audio stream in my internet browser, the volume of this stream is set to 100 percent in pulseaudio. This is way too loud. I can reduce the volume manually, but i like to have it automatically.

Is there a way to set the default volume level for a new or unknown stream in pulseaudio?

  • Open *pulse audio* make sure you tick *EQ Enabled* and *Keep Settings* open audio setting -> output make sure to check LADSPA Plugin it's installed by default with pulse audio ubuntu 16.04 LTS for more customize or if you not found LADSPA Plugin check this link http://askubuntu.com/questions/43950/how-can-i-apply-a-ladspa-plugin-to-a-pulseaudio-stream for different solution http://askubuntu.com/questions/95716/automatically-adjust-the-volume-based-on-content – Mohamed Slama Jun 06 '16 at 21:13

    @MohamedSlama: Thank you very much. It works like a charm. If you post it as an answer, i would mark it as accepted. PS: I am using Arch Linux. Installing pulseaudio-equalizer-ladspa and pulseaudio-equalizer in combination with your instruction of checking EQ Enabled and Keep Settings were doing the trick. :) – 4515 Jun 11 '16 at 20:37

  1. Open pulse audio make sure you tick EQ Enabled and Keep Settings.
  2. Open audio setting -> output make sure to chose LADSPA Plugin (installed by default with pulse audio ubuntu 16.04 LTS).
  3. For more customize or if you not found LADSPA Plugin check this link.
