[K12OSN] Getting sound going with videos-Changing volume?

[Krsnendu Dasa]

No worries. I worked it out.
There is a guide for linking the fonts in the Fedora Mplayer guide.
When using the gui there is a volume control that works. And even an eq. 
Cool.
Now we just have to work out how to adjust the volume in programs like 
Tuxmath that have no volume control.
