I am using workrave on debian box with pulseaudio sounds.

It worked nicely before I updated to 1.10.6.0 today.

Now, each time when workrave plays a sound they adjust my volume level to 100%.

I can see it in pavucontrol clearly.

It is a huge problem for me.

Workrave should only modify its own volume level; not the master volume.
So it should only have effect one the sounds Workrave is playing.
The volume that Workrave uses for its sounds can be set in the preferences.

Does Workrave change master volume on your computer?

Yes, it does.

I have pulseaudio server and alsa.

And each time after sound alsa-dev master volume set to workrave volume.

And it's pretty new, it wasn't so before last update.
