Hi, thanks for this great extension - I have multiple audio devices and it makes it so much easier to switch between them on the fly.

I do have a feature request, though: Would it be possible to add the option of adding a label to the input/output devices so the user can see which ones are active at a glance without having to click the expansion arrows?

I'm imagining something like this:

When the main volume is in the main panel, the new panel is not merged, and there is no media playing; the new panel is empty and is not "useful".

It would look nicer if it disappeared entirely in such cases.

Here's an example of how it looks now.

Gnome auto-updated extension to v14 and it doesn't work at all.

[Bug] St.IconTheme is not a constructor

This started happening with the last update
Fedora 38 Workstation, Gnome 44.2

The extensions I use that might have changed the quicksettings are Caffeine, supergfxctl-gex and Quick Settings Avatar

It would be cool to have an option to position media controls next to the corresponding application volume controls slider.
Or maybe even put the volume slider inside media controls box.

Of course the tricky part is linking streams with media player objects (org.mpris.MediaPlayer2). Dbus does indicate the owner attribute which appears to contain application name, so this could be used for linking, but not sure if it is easily accessible from the js side currently. It probably can be figured out but would require some looking into it.

Also seems like each application can have only one mpris player but there can be multiple mixers per application. In real world this is probably not a real issue but it could look weird for some edge cases where there is only one player box but multiple volume sliders. 😄

Feel free to close this if you think it makes no sense whatsoever.

If I'm watching a video on YouTube, and the audio level for the Firefox channel is set to 50%, the level will return to 100% after skipping the video ahead or behind.

This only happens with YouTube. I've tested with other sites like Soundcloud and Bandcamp and the audio level is respected when the position is changed.

Using Firefox via Flatpak. Arch Linux with GNOME 45.

Hello!

Certain applications (or web apps) don't play nice with pulseaudio, creating several separate mixers. It would be nice if we could hide these from the audio control panel, since they take up quite a lot of unnecessary space:

https://github.com/qwreey75/quick-settings-tweaks does this by letting the user supply a string, with rules to either block matching strings in the mixer, or only allowing matching strings. This is probably a bit overkill, but it would be nice to have some way of hiding some of the extraneous mixers at least. :)

Hi,

I've encountered a problem with this extension which stopped working after the last update. I get this error "item.menu._signalConnectionsByName is undefined". What's more, the top right-hand panel doesn't open either (and it works again when I remove the extension).

It seems that the "new panel" and the existing panel get widened to fit the longest sound source name, which happened to be, in my case, an instance of MPV that has a long video file name in the title. There should be a limit in the width.

With this extension

Without this extension

Hi, I'm running gnome v46.1 with a customized gnome-shell theme...

Could be possible implement an option to set the border-radius of media panel or e.g. an option like : [] follow theme stylesettings that will override the border-radius defined in the stylesheet.css file?.

Thanks
Andrea

Hello

I am not sure if this is a problem with Gnome, my installation, or this extension.

I use this extension to display the input volume slider as well as the output slider. I want this to stay permanently regardless of when devices are added or removed so I can change input/output quickly without having to open the settings.

Unfortunately, the input slider keeps disappearing as soon as I try to change input, or as soon as some change happens (such as plugging in a headphone, etc).

Example:

Then I try to select a different input:

The slider disappears immediately:

I have to toggle the extension to get it back.

I asked the Gnome public matrix room, and it looks like they rely heavily on extensions to do these little things (which is very odd and stupid to not have a built-in way of changing settings for this kind of thing, but what do I know, I'l just an end-user).

Please let me know if there are any logs or other information I can provide.

After my PC resumes, sometimes the extension crashes removing the top row of quick settings:

If after resuming the extension does not crash, I can still reproduce the error by turning off the extension in Extension Manager:

This extensions adds a background scrim when the quick panel is opened. I want to disable that.

Here is example with Youtube on Firefox.

If I play some video in Wayland session, the description does not get set the same as in pavucontrol, it just shows "AudioStream"

If I then start a nested wayland session as the audio is playing using dbus-run-session -- gnome-shell --nested --wayland, it sets the descriptionin the nested session correctly:

But then when I change the Youtube video in the nested wayland session, description changes to "AudioStream" , while pavucontrol shows the correct description at all times.

Not sure if it requires subscribing to some additional dbus event or it is something else. But it makes me guess which audio stream is which in case I have multiple audio streams on Firefox.

Are there any plans for Gnome 45? All extensions are now broken and need to be ported to Gnome 45.

https://gjs.guide/extensions/upgrading/gnome-shell-45.html#esm

I love this extension and I thank you for it, but I can't enable it because it floods my log.

When I enable the extension, the attached errors appear in the log.

And then, several times per second, this is added forever, even after disabling it:

O.S. Ubuntu 23.04.

If you need more information, let me know.

I am running Gnome Shell 43.9 on Debian 12.4. When enabling the extension on https://extensions.gnome.org/extension/5940/quick-settings-audio-panel/ I get a red "ERROR" where the "enable" button was.

My journal shows:

For whatever reason, this extension seems to break other extensions that add a menu item to the quick-settings menu on Gnome 45

How to reproduce

1. Install this extension and an extension that adds something to the quick-settings menu
   • Example: Caffine https://extensions.gnome.org/extension/517/caffeine/
   • Example: Forge https://extensions.gnome.org/extension/4481/forge/
2. Upon login, the other extension will report a this.menu.insertItemBefore is not a function error.

Thanks for this extension, unfortunately the mic active info icon (orange) which is shown when mic is actually in used is not shown anymore.

Virtual outputs having no application name show "null", which should probably be hidden.

I am getting error this._control.lookup_device_from_stream(...) is null

I believe this started after installing something with audio, maybe pulse audio related or something.

Although it gives an error and it says it's turned off, it still seems to works. But not the mixer part.

I am on Nobara 38, Gnome 44.2, Wayland, Linux 6.5.5

This is just a feature request to be able to choose sound output device per application from the quick settings panel.

If I open de main audio mixer, I can change the global audio output, but they are not displayed on the application mixer.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Suspend the PC by clicking the top-right menu -> power icon -> Suspend
2. Wake up the PC
3. Click to expand the top-right menu again
4. The power menu remains expanded (but without focus, indicating a bug, see screenshot below)
   

Expected behavior:
After waking up the PC, the power menu should not be expanded, nor expanded without focus.

I have tried the following to make sure the bug is indeed caused by this extension:

1. Disable GNOME Extension completely. The bug cannot be reproduced.
2. Enable all used extensions except Quick Settings Audio Panel. The bug cannot be reproduced.
3. Disable all used extensions except Quick Settings Audio Panel. The bug was reproduced.

Hello,
So, I believe this extension removes or replaces the QuickSettings panel with its own layouts. I am hoping it follows the same menu>box>grid kind of setup as default Gnome but maybe I am missing something.

The issue is a conflict of sorts with extension Open Bar which styles the panel and all the menus. Open Bar allows to change the css elements for QuickSettings like background, foreground, shadow, border etc and also for the internal buttons.
When QSAP is enabled , the styling does not apply to the QS panel (though does work, at least partially, with the internal elements).
I am thinking the custom styles from class .popup-menu-content do not apply.
OpenBar basically goes through list of all the elements in the QS panel menu (based on default Gnome layout) and adds a custom css class to all of them. This class can then be used to override the styles. This works by default but not when QSAP is enabled,

I am guessing the answer lies in libpanel but I could not identify exactly where the conflict occurs.

In case you can think of what may be causing it, we can think of how to make it work. I would guess, I need to push my custom class into QS panel differently for QSAP based on its layout.

In the end it would be good to have QSAP panels also be styled with OpenBar.

Cheers.

When I use this extension with any other BT Headet with mic it shows two entries:

• <BT_HEADSET_NAME> Headset
• <BT_HEADSET_NAME> Hands Free

But with the Airpods it only shows:

Even known in the Gnome Audio Output list the Hands Free is there

When I select it on the Gnome List it doesn't show as selected in the extension:

If I then try to select it via the extension, gnome-shell crashes with the following output:

When toggling the option "Create per-device volume sliders", the sliders appear but dont disappear again. If you turn it back on the sliders appear twice, the three times etc. Removing the extension doesn't remove the sliders either, login out and back removed the sliders.

I am on:
OpenSUSE Tumbleweed
Gnome 45

When I expand the output panel, it expands down correctly, but the new audio output panel incorrectly overlaps everything else in the panel and doesn't move other items down (Ubuntu 23.04)

Today I reallized I can drag quick settings menu items around, and the volume control box has bigger box than it should be.

I'm listening to music on my "normal" speakers, but use a USB headset for video conferences and calls.
Currently I can only control the output volume of the default output.

It would be nice if I could have volume sliders for both outputs.

(This is on Quick Settings Audio Panel v32.)

Hello! First I'd like to thank you for this extension, is pretty useful to me.
Second... I would like to know if it's possible for you to add support for the latest gnome 46 version.
I tried to disable the extension version validation parameter and this is the error this extensions gives me:

Error: No signal 'actor-added' on object 'LibPanel_PanelColumn_quick-settings-audio-panel-rayzeq-github-io'
