Thanks for the fast reply. As I note in this bug and in bug #486154, that bug is primarily focused on the system bell in Metacity. We did uncover problems under Compiz, but I thought it would be better to split them out into their own bug. This is that bug. Hopefully, unlike #486154, this one is solvable.
Thanks for bringing #537703 to my attention. I remain firmly of the position that Compiz is behaving exactly correctly - window managers should not be mucking about with audio. This is why I specifically did not file this bug against Compiz. I will let #537703 know about this bug, and if they believe a solution to this one is a solution to both, then we can mark one as a duplicate. But if they're looking for a fix to Compiz, then these need to remain separate. > specify more clearly what it is exactly that you want fixed. I would like a sensible default for handling the system bell that is easy to customize. We need to decide what that default is before we can figure out what needs to be fixed. This is my attempt to get the relevant parties together to make that decision. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-media in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/769314 Title: System bell broken in Natty/Unity (despite heroic...) -- desktop-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
