Package: plasma-desktop Version: 4:5.5.4-1 Severity: grave Tags: upstream Dear Maintainer,
I am reporting this with an high severity, because this can cause hear loss. On a default install of debian with kde (recommends enabled), when playing music, when a KDE notification appears, the overall volume goes up to 100%, which can cause hearing loss. I have tried to replicate, pressing "test" in systemsettings, for the audio output of the notifications, and the volume always goes to 100%, regardless of the initial value. Sometimes the volume of amarok remains unchanged, and sometimes it goes to 100% as well. Since this is probably a very complicated issue that might be caused by pulseaudio, phonon, vlc as phonon backend or kdelibs, and it will probably take many years to be fixed, I suggest to ship plasma with a sane default and disable all audio notifications by default. This is probably the best solution in the short term. And I don't think this can wait, since blasting sound at 100% volume when my setting was 12% can be dangerous. I hope you will not ignore this.
