Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: kdebase
I'm running a release version of Kubuntu 9.10; all updates as of
2009-10-30, on an HP Pavilion dv3-2150us.
Observed behavior: When I go to the KDE menu and select shutdown (or use the
shutdown/lock widget to shut down), I get a dialog whose options do nothing.
No matter what I click on, I am returned to the desktop with no changes.
Further attempts to click on the shutdown button do nothing at all; there is no
dialog.
I have to shut down my system with `sudo shutdown now' or similar.
This is identical to a supposedly closed bug that pinned the problem on knotify
waiting to play the logout sound and being unable to.
Before I tried a clean install of Kubuntu 9.10, I was running Kubuntu 9.10RC,
and when this happened, turning off the shutdown sound in System
Settings->Notifications->KDE Settings worked. I would verify the names of
those panels in the system settings applet, but after I try to shut down the
`right' way, I can't open the System Settings applet at all.
Expected behavior: KDE logs out/shuts down.
Question: sox (`play') and pidgin have sound; play skips with alsa
underruns every so often and pidgin only has sound when its server is
set to `automatic' or `esd'. KDE apps like Amarok and KDE notifications
(but curiously not dragon-player) themselves are silent. Is this
inability to shut down linked to my inability to play sounds in KDE?
