Bug ID: 400979
Summary: Device Preference "Test" button ignores selected
device, only plays to default
Product: systemsettings
Version: unspecified
Platform: Compiled Sources
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: kcm_phonon
Assignee: sit...@kde.org
Reporter: j...@keelhaul.me.uk
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
The tool tip over the "Test" button says that it should test the selected
device, i.e. the one selected in the scrolling list. However, it appears to
ignore the selected device and always plays the test sound to the default one.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open System Settings - Hardware - Audio and Video - Device Preference
2. Click "Test", the test sound plays through the default (initially selected)
device
(on my system, "HDA ATI SB, ALC888 Analog Default Device).
3. Select another device (on my system, "HDA NVidia, HDMI 1 HDMI Audio Output")
4. Click "Test" again, the sound again plays through the default device. No
sound is heard
over HDMI.
OBSERVED RESULT
Test sound is always played through the default device.
EXPECTED RESULT
Test sound should be played through the selected device.
