May i learn any way to achieve that via a GUI indicator and have a sound mixer for each of the applications (such as spotify and skype) to set the volume differently?? Think the section shown on picture as an indicator.

Thank you so much.

ps: alsa mixer from terminal is not handy for daily usage, access to settings is much more easier than that mixer.

To have a somewhat better control on presently playing output devices we may install and run pavucontrol Install banshee.

  • does it have indicator at top? – biozalp Dec 20 '15 at 14:05
  • No, it does not come with an own application indicator. If we must we could abuse the sound indicator to start pavucontrol by adding `pavucontrol` to the dconf key `com.canonical.indicator.sound/interested-media-players`. But it is not meant to be operated like that, and there is no advantage over starting from the launcher. I would not recommend to do so. – Takkat Dec 20 '15 at 15:31
  • thanks for the advice m8, however it is no use to me. That just adds a bit features but not what i'm looking for. – biozalp Dec 20 '15 at 15:51
