I agree with Timothy that this is probably not a problem that many people are encountering, and thus not paper cut material, for the following reasons: since :
1. The general audio-related use case of a computer running Ubuntu will be to either plug something into the 3.5mm audio jack or simply use the built-in speakers. 2. The general use of HDMI is on modern TVs, and while I know there are home theatre PCs out there running Ubuntu, I don't believe the HTPC scene is very big, and certainly does not include the 'average user', which is where the paper cuts project focuses its attentions That said, maybe including attached audio devices in the sound menu might be a nice improvement, instead of a bug fix. I'm not just talking about output either. Perhaps including others, such as: 1. Portable media players, which will open in the default music manager when selected 2. Output, which will switch to that device for output 3. Input, similar to output. I'm going to draw some attention to this from the desktop team, and see what they think about doing that. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1061684 Title: Switch between HDMI audio device and Analog from the System Tray To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/hundredpapercuts/+bug/1061684/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
