Bug ID: 506791
Summary: No visual distinction between the "preferred device
zero volume" state and the "global mute" state
Classification: Plasma
Product: plasmashell
Version First 6.4.2
Reported In:
Platform: Arch Linux
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: Audio in general
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
CC: [email protected]
Target Milestone: 1.0
SUMMARY
Keep pressing the "decrease volume" shortcut and it would decrease the volume
of the preferred device to zero. Then both the OSD and the tray icon would show
it as "muted", which is visually indistinguishable from the different "global
mute" state.
The pressing the "mute/unmute" shortcut in this state would produce no visual
feedback, as the OSD would keep saying "muted", leading the user to believe the
shortcut is broken.
IMHO either we should visually separate the two states, or merge them (i.e.,
decreasing the volume of the preferred device to zero would automatically
enable global mute, and disabling global mute would automatically increase the
volume of the preferred device to non-zero).
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Keep pressing the "decrease volume" shortcut, until the OSD says "muted".
2. Press the "mute/unmute" shortcut.
OBSERVED RESULT
The OSD still says "muted", as if the shortcut doesn't work.
EXPECTED RESULT
Some indication that the shortcut works, and it's now in a different "global
mute" state.
