With the alarm clock waking the phone from suspend we still need to make sure the alarm sound is audible. We thus need it to have a volume level separate from e.g. media, notifications, calls, etc. This is possible with #wireplumber&#39;s &quot;role based policy&quot;. There&#39;s a lot of lose ends to fix before this all can land but here&#39;s a quick demo in #phosh (the alarm sound your is played via #feedbackd which adds the necessary role): #LinuxMobile

·..and here's how the volume controls currently look in mobile settings. We get the list of controls from #wireplumber too and #phosh's volume slider gets the highest priority volume so the top panel's volume slider does "the right thing" by default. (I've linked the related MRs from https://gitlab.gnome.org/guidog/meta-phosh/-/issues/20)

@agx Really cool to see progress on that! This is the kind of essential things we miss from Android on Linux mobile. I hope it will get standardized across Linux distros

@agx the alarm sound is a bit ...quiet? and high pitched, i could come up with something a bit more modern and louder if you'd like!

@agx Would it be a stretch to think that if this is possible, calls and notifications from suspend could be done similarly?
