Package: pavucontrol Version: 4.0-1 Severity: wishlist Dear Maintainer,
The changelog on https://freedesktop.org/software/pulseaudio/pavucontrol/ for version 4.0 includes "There can now be only one pavucontrol window open at a time. Trying to start pavucontrol for a second time brings the first window to foreground.". This is a misfeature for the way I use pavucontrol. Previously, I would often have pavucontrol open on multiple desktops at once (e.g. I have a desktop for games and another one for TV streaming and want volume control on those two but not on others). (As this was called out in the upstream changelog, I don't really expect it to be changed, so some simple workarounds are (1) just set the window to show on all desktops or (2) make more use of the panel applet.)
