Confirmed that after https://code.launchpad.net/~rsalveti/indicator- datetime/adding-media-role/+merge/233299, the alarm now plays even if ubuntu-system-settings > sound > silent mode is checked to 'on'.
Tested on mako + rtm build 32, and marking as fix-released for indicator-datetime. After talking to rsalveti in #phablet, there is still a component of this to be done for indicator-sound, to be able to control volume per roles, and not the master one. ** Also affects: indicator-sound Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Changed in: indicator-datetime (Ubuntu) Assignee: Charles Kerr (charlesk) => Ricardo Salveti (rsalveti) ** Branch linked: lp:~rsalveti/indicator-datetime/adding-media-role ** Changed in: indicator-datetime (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed => Fix Released ** Changed in: indicator-sound Status: New => Triaged ** Changed in: ubuntu-clock-app Status: Triaged => Fix Released -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Unity API bugs, which is subscribed to The Sound Menu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1337917 Title: Alarm does not ring when phone is muted Status in Sound Menu: Triaged Status in Clock application for Ubuntu devices: Fix Released Status in “indicator-datetime” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Bug description: I expect the alarm to go off even if the phone is muted.
