Bug Description

The Pavu output mixer presents 2 sliders in the output panel:
- the soundcard
- jack sink

The volume slider on the desktop only affects jack sink, hence if the soundcard slider is all the way down, no sound is output until pavu is opened and the soundcard output level is manually adjusted. The keyboard volume buttons have the same effect.

This is actually expected behaviour. The slider depends on which output is set as fallback.
