Public bug reported:
How to reproduce:
1) Uncheck "Other vibrations" in System Settings > Sound
2) Open the dialer and press a few buttons
3) You will notice that the phone does not vibrate when pressing a button
4) Now open the clock app and press a few buttons
5) The selection in the system settings does not seem to affect the clock app
and the phone still vibrates when pressing an AbstractButton or a derived item
Components to which the setting does apply:
* Unity 8
* System Settings
* Dialer
* Messaging app
* Address book
Components to which it does NOT apply:
* Webbrowser
* Camera
* Clock
* Terminal app
* File manager
* Document viewer
* Any click app from the store which I have tried so far
Debugging efforts so far:
I have added a few console.log() calls and saw that in Haptics.qml, when
the play() method is called, vibra.otherVibrate is true. So it seems as
if the ServiceProperties object fails to fetch the proper value when
running the aforementioned apps.
A few observations:
* All apps for which it works are legacy (e.g. non-click) applications.
* However, the webbrowser app is a legacy one, too, but it doesn't work there.
* All apps for which it works run unconfined.
* However, the terminal and the file manager apps are unconfined, too.
* The apps for which it works seem to use the most recent UITK version.
* However, the document viewer does that as well.
