Public bug reported: Ubuntu 13.10 x64
When nobody is logged in on console, but pulseaudio and mpd are running, indicator-sound uses 50-70% of CPU. This is bad for power consumption and also bad for background jobs running in a vnc4server session. from top: 15215 lightdm 20 0 363m 4452 3440 R 68.8 0.1 0:20.62 indicator-sound 1431 pulse 9 -11 398m 6972 3960 R 29.6 0.2 6:43.14 pulseaudio 15103 root 20 0 201m 28m 22m R 27.9 0.8 0:09.51 Xorg 15130 lightdm 20 0 834m 39m 26m S 15.3 1.1 0:05.99 unity-greeter If I uninstall indicator-sound, then pulseaudio doesn't show up in top either. ** Affects: indicator-sound (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Description changed: - Ubuntu 13.10 x64!vnc + Ubuntu 13.10 x64 When nobody is logged in on console, but pulseaudio and mpd are running, indicator-sound uses 50-70% of CPU.
