Please provide "rpm -qa | grep mate" output (without quotes) and also content of "/etc/sound/profiles/current/mate/bin"

Mate was installed by installing task-mate.

Here is the output:

Comment 4 Zoltan Siposs 2016-01-05 09:20:02 CET

As a workaround, I switched to pulseaudio by installing mate-media-pulse-1.8.0-4.mga5. Mixer provided by this package is working as expected.

Comment 5 Atilla ÖNTAŞ 2016-01-05 12:43:11 CET

Would you mind to re-install mate-settings-daemon-gstreamer and mate-media-gstreamer packages and tell us if it works this time. Probably, it was a some kind of misconfiguration in sound system or a scriptlet failed install time.

Comment 6 Zoltan Siposs 2016-01-05 12:54:50 CET

I reinstalled packages, and problem solved.
Now everything is working perfectly.
Therefore it was not a bug, but an error during configuration, as you assumed.
Thank you so for your quick reaction and help.
