From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I can adjust the slider up and down for the volume in the tray, but it stays at 100%. I tried using Pulse Audio to adjust as well, but it has the same problem. It's the family 17h/19h HD Audio Controller. When I use HDMI audio output all works as it should, it's just the internal laptop speakers that will not adjust. Anyone have thoughts? I googled this quite a bit and come up with nothing.

Well Fedora doesn't use pulseaudio so I don't quiet understand how you managed to use it to change the volume.

What I would do is pull up settings and then go to sound. From there you should be able to see all of your audio settings.

Pipewire comes with a bunch of wrappers so that PulseAudio and JACK applications still work. You can use pavucontrol to change the volume settings on Pipewire without any issues.

People who don't know that they're using Pipewire may not even notice and think they're still on Pulse, that's how good the Pipewire integration is.

I've run into issues like OP describes myself, but for me this was fixed with a reboot.

Interesting, I actually didn't know that.
