+ <section name="Default Sync Volume Settings">
+
+ <p>With the flat volume feature enabled, the sink HW volume is set
+ to the same level as the highest volume input stream. Any other streams
+ (with lower volumes) have the appropriate adjustment applied in SW to
+ bring them to the correct overall level. Sadly hadware mixer changes
+ cannot be timed accurately and thus this change of volumes can somtimes
+ cause the resulting output sound to be momentarily too loud or too soft.
+ So to ensure SW and HW volumes are applied concurrently without any
+ glitches, their application needs to be synchronized. The sink
+ implementation needs to support synchornised volumes can use the following
+ parameters to refine the process.</p>
+
+ <option>
+ <p><opt>enable-sync-volume=</opt> Enable sync volume for the sinks that
+ support it. This feature is enabled by default.</p>
+ </option>
+ <option>
+ <p><opt>sync-volume-safety-margin-usec=</opt> The amount of time (in
+ usec) by which the HW volume increases are delayed and HW volume
+ decreases are advanced. Defaults to 8000 usec.</p>
+ </option>
+ <option>
+ <p><opt>sync-volume-extra-delay-usec=</opt> The amount of time (in usec)
+ by which HW volume changes are delayed. Negative values are also allowed.
+ Defaults to 0.</p>
