Rename Audio Devices in GNOME’s Quick Settings Sound Menu

Want to rename the audio devices that appear in the Quick Settings menu sound switcher? “No,” will be the answer from most people reading this. But I reckon a few of you will be hollering a throaty “hell yeah” my way — so this GNOME extension tip is for you, folks. I showcased an extension that lets you hide audio devices from GNOME’s Quick Settings menu a week back. This one is similar. But instead of hiding audio devices from the sound switcher it allows you to rename them. Like, anything you want. “Sound bar”, “noise emitter”, “cheap speakers”, etc. :sys_more_orange:

New Extension Adds Notifications, Media Controls & Media Streams to GNOME Quick Settings

A new GNOME extension allows you to tweak the layout, appearance, and functionality of the new Quick Settings menu in GNOME 43. I wrote about a similar-ish GNOME extension last week that let you remove buttons from showing up in Quick Settings. The author of that extension is back with a new add-on that can that too plus a whole lot more. The ‘Quick Settings Tweaker’ extension installed on Ubuntu 22.10 (or another distro that uses GNOME 43) lets you: Show notifications in Quick Settings menu Show media controller in Quick Settings menu Show per-app audio stream volume sliders Choose :sys_more_orange:

GNOME is Exploring a New ‘Quick Settings’ Feature

I’d wager that most people find GNOME Shell easy to use out-of-the-box — after all, simplicity its part of GNOME’s calling card. But is there room for improvement? Always, and GNOME’s design team think so too. They’re exploring how to make accessing commonly used settings (like screen brightness, wireless network, and dark mode) in GNOME Shell even easier than it is now. They’ve produced a bunch of mockups and even an animation for the feature they call “quick settings”. Before we look at all of that juicy stuff I need to unfurl a testy disclaimer: The mockups you see in :sys_more_orange:
