Re: Plugin Volume Control start MUTE
Welcome to the forum ebertholdo
What version of LXPanel are you using? What distro are you using? Why are you editing the configs by hand? It should work ootb. I guess, you need to tell alsa to restore last settings on startup.

Re: Plugin Volume Control start MUTE
Hi Maces, the version LXPAEL is 0.3.8.1-2, distro is Debian Lenny (64bits) !!! I Solve my problem installing a gnome-alsamixer and then i remove the plugin of the lxpanel, because the plugin appears always mute even if I configure it with user root in terminal using alsamixer and after i save the configuration com alsactl store, and even so the problem continues!!!
Re: Plugin Volume Control start MUTE
I am using the newest 0.4 panel and having the SAME issue with the panel vol plugin starting muted. I do want to keep it though so removing it is not a good option.
I am ALSO having a similar issue: I can unmute it and move the vol up. But as soon as I click to start moving the vol down or up again its automatically muted without me clicking the mute check-box!! Also even though it shows muted, I still have sound. So basically the mute does not work, but the volume bar itself does work as it should.
Can anyone confirm this is an issue as well?
Other than that I am really liking this new vers of the panel!!

@banshee28:
I can confirm this error on my 32bit Archlinux. Volume control work, but, as you described, the mute-box is always checked, when changing the volume. But mute doesn't work, I hear sound in the volume i set it

Re: Plugin Volume Control start MUTE
What sound card are you using? I am using a creative sb live card. This might be part of the problem? When I had the on-board sound setup it was no longer muted!

Re: Plugin Volume Control start MUTE
If the sound is in fact muted on startup, see here
http://forum.lxde.org/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=435
On my system, I cannot reproduce the mute checkbox being out of sync with the actual mute state of the sound card, but this is not the first complaint about it. We use the ALSA library to obtain this state, so it could be that it is not being reported correctly. You could try exploring with alsamixer to see if it also reports incorrect state.
