The one thing the hook key should be used for is for pausing/resuming media playback (especially as there's often volume up/down keys as well). There's a bit of UX design here, too (which one to resume - most probably the most recently paused? Or maybe the most recently paused *by the* hook key?).
Now the design question is whether we want to allow apps getting the event, and if so - when (when they're playing audio only, or also when there's no audio playing? always when the app is focused?). Basically, the floor is open to think of additional use cases for that button. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1398427 Title: Can't use earphone to answer or disconnect a call To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/canonical-devices-system-image/+bug/1398427/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
