---------------
pulseaudio (1:12.2-2ubuntu4) eoan; urgency=medium

  * debian/patches/0006-load-module-x11-bell.patch:
    - remove that old distro patch, it's undocumented, not needed since
      GNOME handles the login sound by itself and create issues in some
      cases (duplicate sound, not respecting the UI choice)
      (lp: #1827842)

  * d/p/0800-stream-restore-Don-t-restore-if-the-active_port-is-P.patch:
    - Don't restore the streams to sinks/sources with only unavailable ports
      (LP: #1834138)

Title:
  pulseaudio should not load module-x11-bell in gnome-shell

Status in pulseaudio package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  The package `pulseaudio` installs a startup script in 
`/etc/xdg/autostart/pulseaudio.desktop`,
  which itself runs `/usr/bin/start-pulseaudio-x11`,
  which loads a number of x11 related modules in `pulseaudio`.

  One of these modules is `module-x11-bell`,
  which makes `pulseaudio` play a sound each time a system bell is emitted
  (usually by terminal applications, such as bash or vim).

  This is redundant with gnome-shell, which is also able to handle the system 
bell
  (through the gsetting key `org.gnome.desktop.sound event-sounds`).

  The gnome system bell is directly configurable by the user (Settings > Sound),
  so it should be preferred over pulseaudio's own system bell.

  I suggest to patch the `/usr/bin/start-pulseaudio-x11`,
  to avoid loading `start-pulseaudio-x11` if it detects it is running in Gnome 
Shell
  (e.g. if GNOME_SHELL_SESSION_MODE is set).
