[Touch-packages] [Bug 1585084] Re: Volume notification keeps popping up constantly (the notify-OSD bubble on top-right corner)
A whole year later I'm still affected by this bug with Kubuntu 18.04. No volume notification shows up in kde but audio playback still skips about once or twice in in a couple of minutes like headphones just got plugged in and then immediately taken out. No headphones were plugged in at any time by the way. Workaround in comment #20 still works. My sound card: (lspci) Audio device: Intel Corporation 7 Series/C216 Chipset Family High Definition Audio Controller (rev 04) (aplay -L) HDA Intel PCH, ALC898 Analog I never used Windows on this machine so I can't rule out the possibility that this is actually a hardware problem. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to pulseaudio in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1585084 Title: Volume notification keeps popping up constantly (the notify-OSD bubble on top-right corner) Status in pulseaudio package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: I upgraded to Ubuntu 16.04 yesterday, I did a clean install while preserving the home directory which is mounted in a separate partition.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1585084] Re: Volume notification keeps popping up constantly (the notify-OSD bubble on top-right corner)
So... I previously reported that this bug got fixed for me in 16.04. I was wrong. The bug is still present and now only shows up once or twice a day causing a small skip when reproducing audio. Headphones weren't plugged in. Previously it popped up at least once in a couple of minutes so I incorrectly assumed it got fixed: it just got harder to reproduce... at least for me. My report on 17.04 could also be incorrect. The workaround I posted in comment #20 still works.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1585084] Re: Volume notification keeps popping up constantly (the notify-OSD bubble on top-right corner)
The latest pulseaudio update fixed this for me on 16.04. After the update, just to see if something changed, I reverted the changes made by my workaround in comment #20, rebooted, tested it for a day and I didn't encounter this bug ever since.

@vanvugt I tested 17.04 in a live USB environment all day. This bug never showed up.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1585084] Re: Volume notification keeps popping up constantly(the notifyosd bubble on top-right corner)
I found a more viable workaround based on comment #18 by Anthony that still lets you use your headphone jack provided you have an unused front microphone jack. Install alsa-tools-gui Run hdajackretask Override "Green Headphone, Front side" to "Not connected" Override "Pink Mic, Front side" to "Headphone" Click "Apply now" Click "Install boot override" to make this permanent >From now on, just plug your headphones in the front microphone jack instead of >the front headphone jack and you're golden. Speakers still get automatically >muted when you plug in your headphones. This is much more viable to me as I just use a USB microphone anyway.
