Title: DAC only works when volume turned to max [solved]
Post by: oneself on 2014/12/18, 09:07:22

I'm using a Audioengine D3 DAC (http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00GCDVNHI) with my laptop.  It works, but only if I set volume to 100% using the pulseaudio volume control app.  Otherwise it is just silent.  At max volume, the output is much too loud to listen to.  The only way I've managed to use it is through headphones that have their own independent volume control.

This sounds like an alsa-driver problem. I assume alsa-user mailing list is where you may expect help.

I managed to fix this issue by setting "flat-volumes = no" in /etc/pulse/daemon.conf
