[Bug 1866194] Re: External audio device shows up in the sound output options but the sound keeps being emitted from the internal laptop speaker, or none at all.

[Max Waterman]

I have a similar problem on my Dell XPS 13 - if I boot the laptop with the 
headphones (3.5mm) plugged in, then it essentially disabled the 3.5mm headphone 
jack - nothing I've tried re-enabled it again (eg unplugging/replugging the 
headphone, all the settings, etc). Only a reboot without the headphones plugged 
in and plugging them in after logging in, fixes the problem.
I don't have this problem on my Lenovo T480s.
Perhaps this is a different problem?

[Max Waterman]

I had to install 'pavucontrol' and it exhibited the same behaviour, as
does the 'top panel control' (if I understand that correctly). I
couldn't find 'keus' though.

[Bug 1865862] [NEW] 'sound' settings require changing device and back again

[Max Waterman]

Public bug reported:

I have two actual audio devices plugged in: 1. speaker under my monitor
plugged into the 3.5mm headphone jack, 2. a set of USB headphones.

The 'Sound' settings panel shows three devices:
1. Headphones - built in audio
2. Digital output (s/pdif) - Jambra UC Voice 750 MS
3. Headphones - Jambra UC Voice 750 MS

(I don't really know what 2 is - I usually ignore it)

Normally, after plugging the headphones in, it has 3 selected, but the
'Test' button still plays through 1.

I have to change the 'output device' to 1, then back to 3 in order to
make it work on 3.

So, this bug is that the control centre does not reflect reality when
you launch it. It looks like it is automatically selecting the
headphones just plugged in, but it hasn't actually changed.

[Bug 1857335] [NEW] System volume slider only works between ~90% and 100%.

[Max Waterman]

Public bug reported:

This is only with my USB 2.0 speaker[1] - with other devices, it works
fine and the slider's 0% corresponds to silent and 100% full. With my
USB 2.0 speaker, with the 'output' set to 'Analogue Output - USB2.0
Device', it only has an effect between about 90% and 100%.

I took a video of the problem and uploaded it here:

[Bug 1505774] Re: Feature request: Display each network adapter in network history graph

[Max Waterman]

I agree with this.

I almost always use a VPN, and it seems to me like 'Network History' is
adding together the bandwidth for all interfaces. The effect of this is
that it shows double the bandwidth when I am connected to VPN compared
to when I am not connected. I presume it is adding both wlp58s0 and tun0
- or something to that effect.

I am using expressvpn, and speedtest.net to measure.

I would expect 'network history' to use the device associated with tun0.
If anything, I would expect it to show /less/ bandwidth when connected
to VPN (due to the overhead), but certainly not more.

Ideally, I'd like options - to select the interface, take the default
route interface, or show them all, like in this request.

At least, it should be clear about which interface is being measured, or
however else it is being calculated.

[Bug 1565846] [NEW] gnome-terminal hides mouse pointer

[Max Waterman]

Public bug reported:

This is a problem when using gnome-terminal with focus-follow-mouse,
which is somewhat unusual.

It seems like gnome-terminal has a feature where it attempts to
declutter the screen by hiding the mouse pointer when it thinks it has
focus.

This seems to work ok under normal circumstances, but sometimes it seems
to not make the cursor visible again when it loses focus.

Here is an example of the situation I'm talking about :

(pointer means mouse pointer)

0) install unity tweak tool and use the Window Manager/Additional/Focus mode 
option to set 'focus mode' as 'mouse', and 'auto-raise' to 'off'
1) open a terminal
2) open chrome
3) move pointer over chrome and type
  chrome accepts input
  terminal doesn't and have cursor non-solid
4) move pointer over terminal and type
  chrome defocuses and doesn't accept input
  terminal accepts input, cursor turns solid, and pointer disappears
5) type alt-tab to send focus back to chrome and type

It is at this point that things can go wrong.

The 'correct' behaviour :
  chrome has focus and accepts input
  terminal doesn't accept input, cursor turns non-solid and pointer re-appears

However, when things 'go wrong' :
  chrome has focus and accepts input
  terminal doesn't accept input, cursor *remains solid* and pointer *remains 
hidden*

This leads to the situation where the user decides to change focus again
(pointer is hidden on top of terminal) but can't see where the pointer
is, and he/she moves the mouse around franticly trying to make it appear
again and/or see where it is (it can be difficult to see under normal
circumstances when it isn't moving).

My initial instinct is that there should be an option to stop the hiding
of the cursor, but while filing this bug, everything was working pretty
well, so perhaps this is actually bug and it should just be fixed.

I will attempt to pay closer attention to the situation leading up to
the problem and add comments here if I find anything. I notice other
people having trouble on ubuntu forums, though I suspect they're not
using focus-follows-mouse or have click-to-raise disabled, so perhaps
those aspects are 'red herrings' :

[Bug 825775] Re: Siliencing NickServ/ChanServ

[Max Waterman]

I am also annoyed by this behaviour. While I accept it is not a bug,
just saying that it is the same behaviour for other clients is, imo,
disingenuous. Does empathy not want to be *better* than other clients at
all?

It seems clear to me from personal experience, and from others'
comments, that this behaviour gives a quite poor user experience. As
such, it would be good if it could be improved.

I could imagine, for example, that a feature could be added to run a set
of commands for each channel, so that you can add '/ignore nickserv'

...or perhaps it is already fixed/workedaround somehow?

Max.

[Bug 879266] [NEW] gnome clock 'copy date' ignores custom format

[Max Waterman]

Public bug reported:

run gconf and change the clock app's format to a custom one. On my
system (ubuntu 11.04 using custom desktop) it is
/apps/panel/applets/applet_0/prefs. Enter 'custom' for 'format' and (eg)
'%Y/%b/%d (%a)' for 'custom_format'. Quit gconf.

You should see the custom format displayed in the clock as (eg)
'2011/Oct/21 (Fri)'.

Now, right click on the clock and select 'copy date'. Paste somewhere.

Observe that instead of '2011/Oct/21 (Fri)' you get 'Friday, 21 October
2011'.

Please consider implementing a change to make the 'copy date' option
copy what is displayed and not ... something else.

Clock 2.32.1 - difficult to tell what package this is in (would be nice
to have in the 'about'), but I'm guessing it is /usr/lob/gnome-panel
/clock-applet which is part of gnome-panel versino 1:2.32.1-0ubuntu6.5.

[Max Waterman]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome-system-monitor

When I view filesystems, it lists only 3, and yet it has space available
for about 10, which means that most of the window is plain blue - a
waste of space. I attempted to resize the window so that it didn't show
the plain blue and only showed the 3 file systems, but it won't resize
any smaller. It seems like the window has a minimum size that is too
big.
