            Bug ID: 455495
           Summary: Volume is the same for all devices
           Product: kde
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: unassigned-bugs at kde.org
          Reporter: david.cortes.rivera at gmail.com
  Target Milestone: ---

SUMMARY
Volume used to be remember on a per-device basis. After the last KDE updates,
it isn't anymore.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. If using a laptop, connect some headphones or speakers so as to have at
least two volume sources. If a non-laptop, try having an HDMI screen with audio
or similar plus some speakers.
2. Change the general volume from its default value.
3. Disconnect the currently active sound device (e.g. the headphones) so as to
make it switch to a different output source (e.g. the built-in speakers).

OBSERVED RESULT
Volume remains as it was set for the earlier audio device, but now applied to
the new device, for which the same value is unlikely to be optimal.

EXPECTED RESULT
It should remember that the audio device to which it switched had a different
volume the last time it was used. Different audio devices have very different
meanings for different volume levels. You can make people hurt their ears
badly.
