David Rosca has been working hard in the past few months to add many cool new features to the Audio Volume applet, and among these we can mention the ability to change application volumes, thanks to the implementation of two new tabs, one for managing the running apps that use the sound card and the other one for devices. Another interesting feature is the ability to move audio streams to different devices, which should come in handy to those who have multiple sound cards installed on their Linux boxes. Moreover, users will finally be able to assign their keyboard’s volume mute button to the “Mute microphone” global shortcut.
