I want to be able to set keyboard shortcuts for increase volume, decrease 
volume, and mute.  

Thanks!

I second this feature request.

Thanks!

I've discussed this feature on the forums and jasper replied this:
"Changing the volume with keybindings is a good request and I think the volume
control plugin would be the best place to add it."
Comment 3 Olivier Fourdan editbugs 2006-03-11 07:52:47 CET
I second that, there are already key bindings for that, so it would be easy to
add the grabs to the mixer plugin (ie it has nothing to do with xfwm4)
Comment 4 Vitaly Harisov 2006-04-11 18:35:51 CEST
I use the following in the xbindkeys config file:

"amixer set Master,0 2%+"
        Mod4 + Up

"amixer set Master,0 2%-"
        Mod4 + Down

Win+Up for increase volume, Win+Down for decrease.

And the following to play/pause audacious:

"audacious --play-pause"
        Mod4 + a

It's a bug for Danny...
Comment 6 dannym editbugs 2006-05-14 23:44:28 CEST
Note to self

I need to:
- make volume changer plugin in panel unique again (very questionable)
- move panel plugin config (device & master control) to separate app (maybe launched from mcs though)
- while I'm at it, move other mixer stuff out of mcs as well
- add default keybinding for e.g. XF86_VolumeUp to xfce shortcut manager

So no way in hell that that's going to end up in 4.4
Comment 7 dannym editbugs 2006-05-30 22:34:44 CEST
the amixer idea is good, although there is a keyboard shortcut page in xfce settings now, yay :)

GNOME has a neat OSD applet.  It would be nice to see this in XFCE sometime, too.

Thanks!
Comment 9 james 2006-07-21 02:12:11 CEST
The applet is called acme (http://devin.com/acme/).  You can get the cvs snapshot running with xfce, although there are couple of minor bugs I'm experiencing - mainly the mute button isn't working as a toggle.

Default keybinding for aumix is added in 4.4+ svn...
