Hi all! I was watching movie by VLC player in my Debian-8 App-VM, and discovered that I can set up volume in it up to 200% with mouse wheel (instead of maximum 125% in the classical way), then I closed VLC at this volume... After that system volume (in app-vm i guess) became distorted (stay at 200%?). Any manipulations with audio mixer did nothing, reboot did nothing as well. How can I drop audio mixer or app-vm's volume to defaults?

Have you tried the obvious step of starting the qube and manipulating
the volume control with the mouse?

Run alsamixer in that appvm's terminal and set it back to default

I'll try with alsamixer and answer later (I have no alsamixer in that app-vm atm :\ )
