Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: pulseaudio
pulseaudio remembers which applications were muted last time. so i muted
skype via pulseaudio in sound preferences -> applications awhile back
and skype output audio "hasn't worked" since.
it took me a while to realize that skype was muted. this was compounded
by the fact that skype doesn't show up in the applications list when it
is not actively trying to make a sound, so i couldn't tell that skype
was muted without making a call.
i think this is a usability problem - it would be nice if pa used the
notification system to alert the user when an app starts that it will
run muted...
