For quite a while now, I’ve been annoyed by the system notification volume going to 100% on my Debian systems, regardless of my attempts to set it to a lower level.

I think I have finally found a fix: in your /etc/pulse/daemon.conf, put in a line saying

flat-volumes = no

After all this time, “flat-volumes = no” is finally the default in Debian. Did my periodic Debian Unstable upgrade today, and it told me the config file had changed.
