at minimum, we should never play the ringtone when on an active call, possibly just vibrate. The current behavior on build 210 on mako only plays ringtone and doesn't vibrate at all when on active call. Reversing this would be a step in the right direction.
@rsalveti Regarding alarms and other notifications, is there a global way to not play the ringtones when on an active call and perform some other system wide action (like vibrate only or maybe vibrate and a small sound?) ** Also affects: pulseaudio (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Changed in: dialer-app (Ubuntu) Status: New => Confirmed ** Changed in: dialer-app (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => High ** Changed in: dialer-app (Ubuntu) Assignee: (unassigned) => Gustavo Pichorim Boiko (boiko) ** Changed in: pulseaudio (Ubuntu) Assignee: (unassigned) => Ricardo Salveti (rsalveti) ** Changed in: pulseaudio (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => High -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to pulseaudio in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1359125 Title: ringtone played when on active call Status in “dialer-app” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in “pulseaudio” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: build #199 When there is an incoming call during an active call, the notification uses the configured ringtone. It's very loud to the point you cannot talk anymore until the notification is dismissed. This is very intrusive and the notification should be more discreet like a small beep and a vibration. This behaviour should be the same for all the notifications (alarms, messages) when a call is active.
