Hi guys


The question in short:
Is there a way to make XBMC set the Master pulseaudio volume, rather than it's own internal volume ?


The story so far:

I'm trying to setup a living room media center.
Acually, I'm quite done, that's great, and XBMC is the true heart of it.

Now, I'm facing the last rough corner I'd like to smooth:
I want to regulate, via lirc remote, my system-wide volume.
Done. Works.

But I have a problem:
- XBMC has it's own (de)amplification settings which get regulated when changing volume.
So I disabled every occourring XBMC VolumeUp/Down from the xml kemap. This way, XBMC own volume is not touched, and the system-wide volume gets regulated... but with no visual feedback.
- No system (Ubuntu, so I'm talking about notify-osd) notifications are displayed on top of XBMC

So I think the solution for me would be make XBMC change the system-wide Master Pulseaudio volume rather than it's own.
Is there a switch, a way to do so ?
This way I could re-enable things in xml keymap, and still get beautiful, skin integrated OSD when changing system volume within XBMC.


Thanks for any hint !
