[Bug 1738034] Re: Muted Sound Indicator randomly remains red when no sound is playing

If there was a reliable way of reproducing it, it wouldn't be random. Here's what happens to me: CASE 1: - I mute the volume when no sound is playing Expected behavior: the icon shouldn't go red Observed behavior: usually the icon doesn't go red, but sometimes it does. Then sometimes it remains red until I unmute, sometimes it goes back to normal a few seconds later CASE 2: - I mute the volume - I start playing a sound (e.g. a youtube video or whatever), or some sound starts playing (e.g. a Facebook notification in a browser's tab). Expected behavior: according to you, the icon should become red and remain so until you manually unmute the volume. That's nonsense. What's the logic behind that? Why would I need a reminder that at some point a sound played? Why is a "specific user action required"? Why should I unmute the volume after the sound has already stopped playing? To me, the expected behavior is that the icon should become red and only remain so while some sound is playing, and then go back to normal. It's useful to know when some sound IS playing and I am not hearing it because my volume is muted. When no sound is no longer playing, there's no use in knowing that at some point there had been a sound playing. But whatever the expected behavior is, the observed behavior is that sometimes the icon goes back to normal after the sound stops playing without any action on my part, while sometimes it remains red until I unmute the volume. > But I am unable to reproduce any of them on 18.04 & 18.10 I don't know, maybe it's fixed on those versions.

But I am unable to reproduce any of them on 18.04 & 18.10. Can you explain, how to reproduce in a concise way? And about sound indicator staying red after music stops, as I explained it is intended behavior. Once a explicit user action is requested, the program shouldn't do anything until that specific user action is completed. This is in-line with ux design & concept (I discussed this with previous dev). So I can't change anything in this area. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1738034 Title: Muted Sound Indicator randomly remains red when no sound is playing To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/indicator-sound/+bug/1738034/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1738034] Re: Muted Sound Indicator randomly remains red when no sound is playing
Oh, and by the way, often it does not even become red in the first place when some sound starts playing while the volume is muted. Both becoming red and going back to normal are COMPLETELY UTTERLY RANDOM. (or there's some logic behind it that is so convoluted that it is incomprehensible and renders the "feature" of becoming red, to notify you of something, completely useless) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1738034 Title: Muted Sound Indicator randomly remains red when no sound is playing To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/indicator-sound/+bug/1738034/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1738034] Re: Muted Sound Indicator randomly remains red when no sound is playing
> sound indicator couldn't possibly cover all scenarios why music has stopped playing It can easily do so. It can become red when the amplitude of the output waveform is non-zero and volume is muted, and go back to normal when either the amplitude of the output goes to zero or the volume is unmuted. THAT is the expected behavior. Or, if the expected behavior was really the one you describe (only go back to normal when unmuted), which would be pretty useless, then it does not work either, because, as I said, it behaves randomly. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1738034 Title: Muted Sound Indicator randomly remains red when no sound is playing To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/indicator-sound/+bug/1738034/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 1738034] Re: Muted Sound Indicator randomly remains red when no sound is playing
The icon is EXPECTED to become red when a sound plays and the volume is muted. The issue is that the icon doesn't go back to normal and REMAINS red when the sound is finished playing. I find it hard to believe this is an issue with an icon-theme, but if that is the case, could you please point to where that supposed issue is described? It doesn't make sense to mark this bug as invalid. If it is a duplicate of some other bug, mark it as such, otherwise this is a bug that is not fixed. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1738034 Title: Muted Sound Indicator randomly remains red when no sound is playing To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/indicator-sound/+bug/1738034/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Sorry for my deleted comment, since you said "it's most likely THE issue with..." I thought you were referring to some specific issue that you failed to mention. I assume you meant "most likely AN issue with". Anyway, The icon is EXPECTED to become red when a sound plays and the volume is muted. The issue is that the icon doesn't go back to normal and REMAINS red when the sound is finished playing.

It's most likely the issue with icon-theme issue. For me it turns red or blue depending or icon-theme.

The error is due to not having "accountsservice-ubuntu-schema". But I can't reproduce the error.
