I3 Config file - Volume Control

[DoppleDankster]

Your config file :

# Volume controls
bindsym XF86AudioRaiseVolume exec --no-startup-id pactl -- set-sink-volume 1 +5% 

It's not working for me, i believe it's because the double '-' between pactl and set aren't required

Also if you happend to use a set of speakers & headphones and you often switch between them, i think it's more flexible to use the command this way :

# Volume controls
bindsym XF86AudioRaiseVolume exec --no-startup-id pactl set-sink-volume @DEFAULT_SINK@ +5% 

I personally use a script to switch the value of the @DEFAULT_SINK@ back and forth between my sinks and this allows me to control the volume of the one i'm currently using.

PS : Thanks for your *nix post on reddit , it's really a great great great setup. i'm having tons of fun tweaking mine using your stuff.
