Pulseaudio

Sun Dec 10, 2017 11:13 am
Hi,
I use audio in two ways: a) I listen to music by headphones = analog audio, b) I listen music by a soundbar connected by fibre glass cable = digital audio. So, I have the need to change the audio output from analog to digital or opposite. When I type "pulseaudio" in the menu search area I will get the software and I can add it to the Favorites. But it won't be stored there. When I reboot the computer Pulseaudio is disappeared.
What can I do that Pulseaudio will be part of the Favorites permanently? Or is there another easy way to change analog to digital output?
I have installed the recent version of KDE Neon. By the way if I pin Pulseaudio to the Taskbar it won't work.
Kind regards,
Sigurd

Pulseaudio is built in to Plasma, you do not have to install it separately, you can simply access the settings through the system settings -> Multimedia -> Audio Volume


Running Kubuntu 22.10 with Plasma 5.26.3, Frameworks 5.100.0, Qt 5.15.6, kernel 5.19.0-23 on Ryzen 5 4600H, AMD Renoir, X11
FWIW: it's always useful to state the exact Plasma version (+ distribution) when asking questions, makes it easier to help ...

Hi Mamarok,
I know that. But I would like to have it directly in the Favorites for quick launch. And I can put it there. But only for the session. When I reboot the computer Pulseaudio is no longer in the Favorites. How can I keep it in the Favorites for ever?
Kind regards,
Sigurd

Try Pulseaudio Volume Control; I think the package is pavucontrol. I keep it pinned to my dock, it is useful for volume control (of course), and also switching from computer audio to chromecast to whatever on the fly.
