Anyone can help me out with PipeWire settings?

So I want a way to manually disable volume adjustment in certain app that doesn’t have a setting of it’s own for this, is there a way to manually do that? and since it isn’t installed directly from repo or as a flatpak, but rather runs using .sh file , I guess I would need to disable volume adjustment as an option in general if that is possible, I tried to look up the forum but topics are from 2020 or 2021 so not sure if solutions still work or not.

More context would be helpful for us to help you.

  • Steps you did in Fedora F40
  • Why do you need to lock volume of an app instead of muting sources (playback) on sound settings?
  • What app?
  • How did you install it?

1 Regarding the steps I just use stock fedora I don’t have any additional sound control settings or libraries I manually installed
2 I could have said it the wrong way, I just need this app to stop lowering my microphone sensitivity to the 0 each time I am on the call, Mic works fine in regular recording like obs or in discord so it’s not a mic problem.
3 The App is Mobyx Softphone,
5 I just use the .sh file from Deb archive they have on the site.

sorry for the time taken to reply, I am currently on the shift.

The best bet is likely to be raising support ticket in Mobyx. I’m afraid It makes no sense to point a finger at PipeWire. Good luck.

I am not trying to blame pipewire, I just want to know if it has a function to manually disable volume auto adjusting, that’s all.

WirePlumber (session manager of PipeWire) settings might do the trick. Check the default playback volume settings if you’re happy with it.
