Media on a Prim Audio Controls Not Working in Linux
Galaxy Littlepaws
When playing Media On A Prim in Linux, the audio controls for Media don't affect it at all. This includes changing the volume or muting. There is no difference - it's on and the same volume no matter what. The only thing that works is toggling it off completely.
- Start playing some media on a prim, such as a TV
- Try to adjust the volume or mute Media in the Audio settings of the viewer
