Hi,

recently I got a new Bluetooth headset in the office (Jabra Evolve 75). It works more or less alright with my XA2+ however people complain that my microphone volume is too low. I tried various settings with pactl and pacmd but none made any difference.

These are the settings I tried:

pactl set-source-volume @DEFAULT_SOURCE@ 200%
pacmd set-source-volume 2 131072
pacmd set-sink-input-volume 406 131072

Actually I tried those changed during a phone call. Is there a chance that I need to change those values while not calling? Do you have any other hint?

Here I have open also a question to volume change with pactl. Maybe it helps? I red also that you have to change the micro level up to 400% to solve this. But be careful and do not 400% for sinks!
