Daniel, You may be right that the problem is amarok rather than kmix, if it's a problem at all. I originally thought it was kmix because the kde bug that I linked in the original post suggests that Win+M does affect kmix. But on further testing I found that other apps that use sound such as kaffeine and realplayer were still working.
I do not see the "Mute" overlay in amarok you describe when I press Win+M. I tried setting the global shortcut in amarok to other key combinations but amarok seemed to ignore the keyboard shortcut whatever I set it too. In fact now that I've got it fixed working Amarok appears to ignore this keyboard shortcut altogether. Currently Win+M doesn't do anything at all The more I dig into this the more I find I have problems with other keyboard shortcuts in Amarok. I have Play/pause, skip fwd, skip back and stop on my arrow keys which can be accessed by pressing Fn+arrow. These all work except for Fn+up which should be stop. This used to work prior to having this problem yesterday. Anything I can try to diagnose this further, I'm at a loss? Could it be my soundcard/driver? -- kmix/amarok unable to unmute sound https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/105262 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kubuntu Team, which is a bug contact for amarok in ubuntu. -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs
