<div dir="ltr"><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:large">Tom & NMGLUGers, I found some control for system sounds in my audio mixer controls, pavucontrol and pulse audio. I use the panel icon for sound, go to audio mixer and then, "Playback" and look for system sounds. I turned mine down a bit, but do not have the problem Tom has with high volume and pitch for system sounds. this would be a start, but not definitive. Also I am now on a desktop, but pavucontrol from the panel does work in laptops, from past experience. Thank you, Ted P<br></div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Sat, Jun 11, 2022 at 5:19 PM Tom Ashcraft <<a href="mailto:trailerdog234@comcast.net">trailerdog234@comcast.net</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex">I've got a nice little Acer netbook (maybe twelve years old?) that I use <br>

The problem is that *sometimes* when I use the 'action button' icon from <br>

Does anyone know how I can disable this?<br>
