REVISION SUMMARY There is a checkbox in the Task Manager settings with the text "Mark applications that play audio". Unchecking it does much more than no longer marking applications that play audio though; it disabled all PulseAudio-related features. This not only makes the label inaccurate, but it also seems undesirable; a user could quite reasonably wish to disable the audio indicators while still using PulseAudio-related functionality through the Task Manager (e.g. muting an app from the context menu). This patch makes the setting in question really and truly only show and hide the audio indicator icon on the Task; other PA-related functionality is always loaded when available. TEST PLAN Open an app or window that can play audio and start playing audio with it Make sure that audio indicators are visible Right-click on the task and see that there's Mute item (provided by PA Configure the Task Manager and disable audio indicators See that the audio indicator icon is gone from the task Right-click on the task and see that the Mute item is still there Configure the Task Manager again and re-enable audio indicators See that the audio indicator icon re-appears on the task BUG: 418164 FIXED-IN: 5.18.3 REPOSITORY R119 Plasma Desktop BRANCH show-mute-feature-even-when-audio-indicators-are-disabled (branched from master) REVISION DETAIL https://phabricator.kde.org/D27684 AFFECTED FILES applets/taskmanager/package/contents/ui/Task.qml applets/taskmanager/package/contents/ui/main.qml To: ngraham, #plasma Cc: plasma-devel, Orage, LeGast00n, The-Feren-OS-Dev, cblack, jraleigh, zachus, fbampaloukas, GB_2, ragreen, ZrenBot, ngraham, himcesjf, lesliezhai, ali-mohamed, jensreuterberg, abetts, sebas, apol, ahiemstra, mart
