I am reasonably sure this is a gstreamer problem (either that or somehow lower down the line into alsa, but it doesn't happen in KDE so there's something in gnome...)
Mixer applications that use snd_mixer_selem_set_playback_volume() (alsamixer, gnome-alsamixer) never seem to experience the problem on their own. Applications that use gst_mixer_set_volume() (gnome- settings-daemon, gnome-volume-control) experience it excessively. Therefore ext/alsa/gstalsamixer.c is probably the file at fault in this source package. If I ltrace gnome-settings-daemon and use my keyboard volume keys, the problem is almost completely fixed. This indicates some type of timing problem, because ltrace slows down applications by a little bit. ** Changed in: gst-plugins-base0.10 (Ubuntu) Sourcepackagename: None => gst-plugins-base0.10 -- [gnome] normal volume control useless, various race conditions https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/252237 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gst-plugins-base0.10 in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
