If I remember correctly there was some discussions regarding this when
investigating the Radio alarm problems. The problem with the Radio
alarm is that it's partly implemented on the client side where no
synchronization exists, the result could be a pretty complex scenario
where the alarm state on the client side isn't synchronized between the
different devices. This issue of course doesn't exist on the IP3K based
devices where the whole alarm handling is implemented on the server,
possibly with the exception of the Boom which I'm not sure if there are
some client side logic involved.
What should happen when you turn off a synchronized alarm ? Should it
only turn of the local player or should it turn off the alarm in all
rooms ? Just because I'm awake doesn't mean all the other people in the
house are. What if one person hits sleep and another hits off ?
I'm guessing most people don't use alarm together with synchronized
devices. If there is someone that uses this and reads this thread it
would be interesting to get some information how it works and how they
use them.
