Bug ID: 490633
Summary: When changing volume rapidly, the feedback sound
pops/clicks
Classification: Plasma
Product: plasma-pa
Version: unspecified
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: minor
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org
Reporter: tempqd...@mailinator.com
CC: isma...@gmail.com, m...@ratijas.tk
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
It seems the volume OSD's feedback sound immediately interrupts itself when
re-triggered before the full sound has played. When any audio file's volume
goes instantly to 0 (or a different value), this causes a click/pop noise.
If the sound instead smoothly (but still quickly) faded to 0, there would be no
clicks/pops and it would be much less abrasive to hear, and would be perceived
as much less glitchy.
When the volume down key is *held* (depending on how fast your key repeat rate
is set), there's all kinds of ugly-sounding glitches; maybe there should
additionally be a limit to how rapidly the sound can be played?
STEP TO REPRODUCE
1. Press the volume down (or up) key rapidly, such that the feedback sounds
interrupt each other
OBSERVED RESULT
Clicks and pops are heard
EXPECTED RESULT
No clicks or pops are heard
OS: openSUSE Krypton (today's git master)
