    I want visual feedback of the sound that is currently coming out of the computer. How can I view a live volume meter?

    Neither of these show any movement while sound is playing. Is some kind of extra setup required?

    That's weird. I took the shots while they wer bumping happily. This in 10.04, 10.10, 11.04. Hmm

    I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong. No movement in pavucontrol or pavumeter when playing sound from Banshee, Clementine, or YouTube (npviewer.bin) in two different 11.04 installations. pavucontrol lists each in the playback tab, just like your screenshot.

    But you do hear a sound? For me the signal levels work fine in 10.04, 10.10, 11.04 on two different boxes.
