Re: [orca-list] Per-application volume control




While we're talking wishlists, how about audio ducking, where the
focused window is louder than non-focused windows, notifications etc.

It would be nice to be able to configure a key combination to adjust orca's
speech volume.  Currently this is not possible in the Key Bindings tab in
preferences, and you have to open preferences and navigate to the Volume
control in the Voice tab.

This question may have been answered before; if so, I apologize for

again.

One of the advantages of PulseAudio is so-called "per-application volume
control". How do I use this with Orca and Speech-Dispatcher. Suppose I
want to
play an audio file, for example from Firefox. I need to adjust the volume
of
the audio that is playing without changing the volume of speech output from
Orca.

I'm using a braille display, so I can just turn speech off and adjust the
main
volume, which would work well for me. However, it wouldn't work for
everyone
and I'm curious to know how to adjust volume separately for Orca and for a
media player.

I'm running GNOME 3.14.
