Bug ID: 511496
Summary: Volume widget shows and controls inactive output
device when no audio is being played
Classification: Plasma
Product: plasmashell
Version First 6.4.5
Reported In:
Platform: Bazzite
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: Audio Volume widget
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
CC: [email protected]
Target Milestone: 1.0
SUMMARY
Volume widget displays and adjusts volume of inactive built-in audio output
rather than the active bluetooth output. But only when the widget pop-up is not
open, and audio is not currently playing.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. power on, log in
2. pair bluetooth audio device if unpaired, connect device if previously paired
4. Open Audio volume widget pop up and ensure bluetooth device is selected*
5. Close Audio Volume widget pop-up
6. Ensure no audio is being played **
*bluetooth device is auto selected to be active when first connected, but this
also happens if I manually switch to built in audio and back. Or even if I
disable and re-enable both or either audio devices.
**it takes a couple seconds to kick in
EXPECTED RESULT
Audio volume widget would display and control the volume of the active audio
output, which is the bluetooth device
OBSERVED RESULT
Taskbar audio widget displays volume state of the inactive built-in audio
output instead
Scrolling over widget adjusts volume of the inactive audio output
Volume control keyboard buttons also adjust volume of inactive audio output
The widget temporarily switches to displaying and controlling the active audio
output device only when pop up menu is open, or audio starts to play from an
application.
The widget reverts back to controlling/displaying inactive device as soon as
both no audio is being played and the pop up menu is closed
(For clarity: audio does not get played on the inactive device, it's just the
widget's volume display and volume adjustment that is for the wrong device)
