Bug ID: 493128
Summary: KAlarm 3.9.1 fails to play audio alarm via libVLC
Classification: Applications
Product: kalarm
Version: 3.9.0
Platform: Arch Linux
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: minor
Priority: NOR
Component: sound
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. On Arch Linux install
https://archlinux.org/packages/extra/any/kde-applications-meta/, this brings
with it https://archlinux.org/packages/extra/x86_64/kalarm/ package version
24.08.1-1 which installs
https://download.kde.org/stable/release-service/24.08.1/src/kalarm-24.08.1.tar.xz
from https://download.kde.org/stable/release-service/24.08.1/src/ which in turn
installs KAlarm version 3.9.1. Note that the bug report "Version" selector
offers versions 3.9.0.x and 3.9.2, not version 3.9.1.
2. https://i.imgur.com/g1HCaqJ.png: In KAlarm UI open config menu for a new
audio alarm, e.g. by clicking button File > New Audio Alarm
3. https://i.imgur.com/lD9g5Wp.png: Set an alarm name, pick a sound file, click
Try to hear your alarm sound play
OBSERVED RESULT
With KDebugSettings for KAlarm set to Full Debug when clicking the Try button
to hear your alarm sound play systemd will log: http://0x0.st/Xxnv.txt. The
alarm sound is not audible. The New Audio Alarm dialog can be closed, however,
the KAlarm windows cannot be closed gracefully.
Regular cli audio playback via vlc and cvlc binaries of the same test audio
file works as expected.
EXPECTED RESULT
Audio alarm plays.
