PulseAudio Volume Control (pavucontrol) is a simple GTK based volume control tool ("mixer") for the PulseAudio sound server. In contrast to classic mixer tools this one allows you to control both the volume of hardware devices and of each playback stream separately.
Everybody loves screenshots.
Works perfectly.
There is not much to say. Just run pavucontrol and see for yourself.
Currently, pavucontrol is tested on Linux only. It should work on most Linux distributions.
pavucontrol requires gtkmm and glademmm installed.
Obviously pavucontrol requires an installation of PulseAudio.
As this package is made with the GNU autotools you should run ./configure inside the distribution directory for configuring the source tree. After that you should run make for compilation and make install (as root) for installation of pavucontrol.
