Hi,
I have an issue with my sound level setting. I use a hirestechnologies Microstreamer as USB dac connected to my RPi 4 with MoOde. The Microstreamer has two audio outputs, one for headphones and one line level direct out. The direct line out is connected to a set Audioengine 2+ active speakers.
However the sound level output is very high, so I only turn on the Audioengine 2+ on very low volume. Problem here is that I also use the same speakers with my computer and the sound level is very different, so when using computer audio (for video calls etc) I always need to turn up the volume. The computer is connected via the build in usb dac of the AE 2+
Manually volume is a small task of course and it's fine, but I wanted to lower the output of MoOde a bit and thought I can do that via Max Volume% in audio settings. Sadly that doesn't seem to work. In the end I used software setting, which works but I do not understand why the Max Alsa sound level setting doesn't do anything?
Anyone an idea why setting Max volume% doesn't do anything in Hardware or Fixed output setting?
