Description of Problem:
Suddenly some apps became very quiet, such as Skype(I think it use ALSA directly?). I think it happened after pairing via Bluetooth with an iPhone (to use the PC headphones/mic there). But it’s unpaired now.
As suggested in the Arch wiki I checked volume in alsamixer
-> F6, if I increase from 37 to 100 Skype becomes better but other apps/sounds become too loud, the volume in KDE becomes 100%.
Skype volume in KDE and pavucontrol
is 100%.
How Reproducible:
Steps to Reproduce:
Unclear, possibly related to using Bluetooth with iPhone (setting the PC as Headphones in iOS).
