  • enable_overdrive = false clamps Control Center output/microphone sliders to 100%; true allows up to 150%.
  • enable_sounds = false disables all UI sound playback.
  • sound_volume is the global playback gain for all UI sounds.
  • volume_change_sound and notification_sound accept absolute paths, ~-prefixed home paths, or asset-relative paths. Files are decoded through libsndfile; common supported formats include WAV, FLAC, Ogg/Vorbis, Opus, MP3, and AIFF. Exact format support depends on the distribution’s libsndfile build.
