[EN] How to adjust the volume on the console?

(1/2) > >>

eQuacky:
Hi folks,
as my console's beep is just too loud, especially during autocompletion, I looked for a solution on the internet.

Tried as follows:
pactl set-sink-volume 0 50%
provided no results
pacmd set-sink-volume 0 50%
resulted in:
Failed to parse volume
pacmd list-sinks showed me that I have only index 0

What can I do else?

finotti:
You could try alsamixer.

vinzv:
Is the PC's internal speaker beeping? If so you could deactivate it completely:

--- Code: ---sudo rmmod pcspkr
--- End code ---
To have this change permanently surving reboots create a file
--- Code: ---/etc/modprobe.d/nobeep.conf
--- End code ---
And fill this file with:
--- Code: ---echo "blacklist pcspkr"
--- End code ---

@vinuv
thanks rmmod worked


@finotti
just heard a couple of years ago  pulseaudio should be the better sound solution?!

pulseaudio is (probably) better for the desktop, but it does run on top of alsa.  If when in a terminal you don't have pulse, you can try alsamixer...  (I haven't tried it myself.)  But what matters is that you found a solution!
