Redownloaded and now it works...

It's actually spotty, it'll sometimes work and sometimes fail. Feeling like it is a bug in OS X though

Hi @dustinrue - just wondering if anything has changed with this? Still happens on 10.11.2 beta for me.

(Thanks for ControlPlane btw, love it!)

What system? Internal audio?

dustinrue avatar Dec 03 '15 15:12 dustinrue

@dustinrue Sorry for the late response, completely missed this.

Yes, internal audio. MacBook Pro (see attached.)

Update: just restarted and now it works fine. Weird.

I have the same Problem with my Macbook Pro. mymac

A restart or downloading ControlPlane again, did not help in my case. I can't mute or unmute my Internal Speakers other actions I have tried execute.

Is anyone's sound output set to another device besides "Internal Speakers" (assuming a laptop) when the issue occurs? Anyone have a solid way to reproduce this issue?

In my case I often attach an display port monitor with speakers to my macbook pro, but I use the internal speakers or headphones.

Today I have also tried it without the monitor attached, and it also failed to mute the speakers. After that I look a little bit in this issue, and it seems to me that the problem seems to connected to the propertys. I commented the error handling for AudioHardwareServiceIsPropertySettable and AudioHardwareServiceHasProperty. After this ControlPlane mutes my speakers. Im not an OSX develloper, so I don't know exactly what the problem is.

I now have send an pull request wich fix the issue for me.

@dustinrue FYI this issue can be closed, as the related #445 has been merged.

Hi all,

Has this issue been fixed ? Running ControlPlane 1.6.4 on MacOS 10.11.5, and still receiving "output device does not support volume control"

Thanks !

I think PR#445 fixed it but there hasn't been a public build since then. Been a pretty long time since a new build was out actually (Feb) so hopefully there will be one soon. For now you would have to clone from git and build it yourself with Xcode.
