Public bug reported:
Intrepid development
My mute button in ubuntu used to mute the system only. To restore sound
I simply pressed the volume up or down button once with the first press
the sound level was unchanged.
Now mute has changed to mute/unmute. I was originally in favor of this
functionality but have come to think that it is less than desirable.
Heres why. When I start my computer it has a nice startup sound. When I
start my computer in class I don't want to here that sound. In the past
I could press the mute button many times and be assured that it would be
muted at the earliest time the system responds. Now if I press mute many
times it will mute then unmute back and forth. This is a problem when
the system is first starting up and is not entirely responsive.
So in short I think that the mute button should mute only and that
volume up/down buttons should unmute with their first press.
I realize this is likely a point of disagreement between people. Id hope
there can be a discussion about it if necessary. Possibly the best
solution will be to make a wishlist item allowing people to choose their
mute behavior.
