Package: gnome-applets Version: 2.20.1-3 Followup-For: Bug #451203
Hello again, I did more testings, including with an other card (usb-audio, usb code 046d:0a01, it's a Headset sound card type from Logitech). Sadly I have to correct my previous report. Altough I didn't notice it, I also get volume problems with the 2.14.3-4, it will just never display the volume as a false mute. Still on hda-intel the behavior on 2.14.3-4 is like this: Randomly, when changing the master volume (and checking with an alsamixer also running), the left volume channel drops to zero, while the right volume stays correct. On the next change, the two channels are averaged. So after some up key I got 75% -> 79% but the left channel dropped to zero in alsamixer. Then I decreased it, the new value was 35% (79/2 -4) for the two channels. Actual values from test. With 2.20.1-3, the behavior is a bit different, I never see the left channel dropping to zero, but about the same happens. One test: I did up with 28% and it dropped to 16%. I can assume it's increased first and then divided by 2 ((28+4)/2). Other try: 59% up, I get 31% ((59+4)/2). There's also the random false mute display, but I can't find it linked with when the volume gets wrong. Now with the usb-audio card it's worse. I have to use the "Speaker" control because there's no master. It gets wrong at almost each use. It can take several seconds keeping the up key repeating before reaching 100%. Even if sometimes it works fine for some time, it's almost impossible to set it correctly with the mixer_applet2, while as usual it's always working fine with alsamixer. Sadly the usb-audio doesn't appear to have an OSS emulation API. I can also notice that if I change the volume on alsamixer, the (2.20.1-3) mixer_applet2 also randomly shows the false mute. Other interesting info, but it's no more with mixer_applet2: if I run gnome-volume-control (which behaves as bad as mixer_applet2) and change the sound on alsamixer, the bug appears. gnome-volume-control, by just being around makes the sound control unstable even if changing its settings with alsamixer. Debug should be done with a usb-audio card, much more interesting samples. regards, A.B. -- System Information: -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (600, 'testing'), (50, 'unstable'), (10, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.25-1-strider (SMP w/2 CPU cores; PREEMPT) Locale: LANG=fr_FR.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=fr_FR.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages gnome-applets depends on: ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.21 Debian configuration management sy ii gconf2 2.22.0-1 GNOME configuration database syste ii gnome-applets-data 2.20.1-3 Various applets for GNOME 2 panel ii gnome-icon-theme 2.22.0-1 GNOME Desktop icon theme ii gnome-panel 2.20.3-3 launcher and docking facility for ii gstreamer0.10-alsa 0.10.19-1 GStreamer plugin for ALSA ii gstreamer0.10-plugins-good 0.10.7-3 GStreamer plugins from the "good" ii libapm1 3.2.2-10 Library for interacting with APM d ii libatk1.0-0 1.22.0-1 The ATK accessibility toolkit ii libbonoboui2-0 2.22.0-1 The Bonobo UI library ii libc6 2.7-10 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libcpufreq0 002-7.2 shared library to deal with the cp ii libdbus-1-3 1.2.1-2 simple interprocess messaging syst ii libdbus-glib-1-2 0.74-2 simple interprocess messaging syst ii libgconf2-4 2.22.0-1 GNOME configuration database syste ii libglade2-0 1:2.6.2-1 library to load .glade files at ru ii libglib2.0-0 2.16.1-2 The GLib library of C routines ii libgnome-desktop-2 2.22.1-1 Utility library for loading .deskt ii libgnome2-0 2.20.1.1-1 The GNOME 2 library - runtime file ii libgnomekbd2 2.22.0-1 GNOME library to manage keyboard c ii libgnomekbdui2 2.22.0-1 User interface library for libgnom ii libgnomeui-0 2.20.1.1-1 The GNOME 2 libraries (User Interf ii libgnomevfs2-0 1:2.22.0-2 GNOME Virtual File System (runtime ii libgnomevfs2-extra 1:2.22.0-2 GNOME Virtual File System (extra m ii libgstreamer-plugins-base0 0.10.19-1 GStreamer libraries from the "base ii libgstreamer0.10-0 0.10.19-3 Core GStreamer libraries and eleme ii libgtk2.0-0 2.12.9-2 The GTK+ graphical user interface ii libgtop2-7 2.22.1-1 gtop system monitoring library ii libgucharmap6 1:2.22.1-1 Unicode browser widget library (sh ii libhal1 0.5.11~rc2-1 Hardware Abstraction Layer - share ii libnotify1 [libnotify1-gtk 0.4.4-3 sends desktop notifications to a n ii liboobs-1-3 2.20.0-1 GObject based interface to system- ii libpanel-applet2-0 2.20.3-3 library for GNOME Panel applets ii libpango1.0-0 1.20.2-2 Layout and rendering of internatio ii libwnck22 2.22.1-1 Window Navigator Construction Kit ii libx11-6 2:1.0.3-7 X11 client-side library ii libxklavier12 3.5-1 X Keyboard Extension high-level AP ii libxml2 2.6.32.dfsg-2 GNOME XML library ii python 2.5.2-1 An interactive high-level object-o Versions of packages gnome-applets recommends: pn deskbar-applet <none> (no description available) ii gnome-media 2.22.0-1 GNOME media utilities pn gnome-netstatus-applet <none> (no description available) pn gnome-system-monitor <none> (no description available) ii python-gnome2 2.22.0-1 Python bindings for the GNOME desk -- debconf information excluded -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
