Hello guys!
Sorry for the noob question... :oops:
But how can I set up a general sound controller in XFCE? Right now, every time I want to change the audio output channel, I have to edit .asoundrc, and then restart any open program to get the sound output on the new channel.
I finally got sound out of the Bluetooth headset, but I don't have a channel to change the volume for it in ALSA Volume Control, and the sound from every program is still going through the speakers. The only way I can listen through the Bluetooth headset is using:
Quote:
mpv --audio-device=alsa/bluealsa file.flac


So I'm wondering, how can I get a general volume controller that detects when I connect my Bluetooth headset or when I just want to switch from one channel to another without having to restart the program?
