Previously, when I was changing speaker/system volume in Plasma, each step was distinct. Now, change between 10-100% is barely noticeable. I can hear volume to go up from 100-150%, or go down between 10-5%, but all between 10-100% is changing barely. In short, it is as if the speaker volume was mostly on 100% all the time or the 5% was more like 90%. I can control volume on the app (Firefox, Spotify, etc.) and that works, but system volume seems to be broken.
I noticed this issue for the first time after testing update in 13.09.2024:
Because lack of time to debug this, I decided to roll back my system from a backup and switch to stable branch. Yesterday there was a stable update and I hoped, the fix appeared in the meantime and the stable packages don’t have it. Unfortunately, they still do.
Here is my hardware info:

[2024-10-02T16:02:50+0200] [ALPM] removed mlocate (0.26.git.20170220-7)
I downgraded and rebooted:
pulseaudio-qt
plasma-pa
kpipewire
Didn’t help.
Are there any other sound related packagages I may have missed?
2. I checked test user with vanila configs.
The issue is present on this user as well. That rules out the config issue on users side.
3. Checked if in testing repo there are newer packages that may have fixed it.
I switched to testing branch, did the update, the issue remains.
4. Check if some kernel update didn’t mess things up.
I installed kernel 6.11 and switched to it. After reboot, the problem is still there.
5. Played with Plasma’s sound settings.
Didn’t help.
I can restore my backup, but I guess, it isn’t the best solution long term. I may have to do it, but for now, I try to debug the issue. At this point, I have no idea what package or system component is at fault here, so I can’t submit any bug report.
