# pactl
> Control a running PulseAudio sound server.
- List all sinks (or other types - sinks are outputs and sink-inputs are active audio streams):
`pactl list {{sinks}} short`
- Change the default sink (output) to 1 (the number can be retrieved via the `list` subcommand):
`pactl set-default-sink {{1}}`
- Move sink-input 627 to sink 1:
`pactl move-sink-input {{627}} {{1}}`
- Set the volume of sink 1 to 75%:
`pactl set-sink-volume {{1}} {{0.75}}`
- Toggle mute on the default sink (using the special name `@DEFAULT_SINK@`):
`pactl set-sink-mute {{@DEFAULT_SINK@}} toggle`
