If this solves the problem, please close this and related bugs. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-media in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/423534 Title: Select sound output from gnome-volume-control-applet menu Status in GNOME media utilities: New Status in gnome-media package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: Binary package hint: gnome-media This is not a bug. Set it please to wishlist. I've made some changes in gnome-media package for ease of switching the sound output in cases where you have more than one sound output. Now there is sub-menu in the gnome-volume-control-applet menu where you can choose the current sound output. This is very useful if you have a bluetooth headset. Menu will show up only when there is more than one audio output devices. I've contacted gnome-media maintainer Marc-André Lureau. He recommended me to register it as a bug on bugzilla.gnome.org, which i did. Bug:#593752 http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=593752 Also he said that this will not be in the 2.28 because it is in UI/string freeze. Maybe it is possible to get it into Ubuntu karmic? Attached patch file with changes made. Just get gnome-media source package, drop patch into package's debian/pathces directory and build it.
