Ever since I’ve switched over to Linux a few years ago there has been a few annoyances that I haven’t fixed. Every time I play a video or listen to some music the volume is never right. I always end up using the volume controls on the front of my laptop. Then I end up having to open the volume applet to make adjustments because the subwoofer on the bottom is a different control. This finally took its tole and I had to finally fix it.
It’s very easy to make the change all you have to do is open the volume control applet preferences.

Then while holding down control click on the channels you want to link together.

There is one limitation doing this though. I still can’t use the front volume controls to change the sound level. The front control panel still only adjusts the master volume.
