Hi,
I haven't found a way to change volume from command-line (in a non-interactive way) for sinks. I need it to be able to attach volume scripts to my notebook buttons.
"pulseaudio -nF" with commands fails with error:
E: pid.c: Daemon already running.
E: main.c: pa_pid_file_create() failed.
Other programs like pactl, pavucontrol, paprefs etc. get no commandline options at all or do not offer the needed functions.
So is there a way that I haven't found? Basically what I need is to issue commands like those offered with amixer i.e. volume up (with unmute), volume down, volume up by %, volume down by %, mute, unmute, toggle mute etc.
Right now, I can only control PCM with amixer through pulse.
