[Bug 1076947] Re: Headphone muted in new/guest account
I was asked to come up with a hacky workaround, so here it is: Add a file /usr/bin/unmute-sink, and make sure it's executable, with this contents: #!/bin/sh pactl set-sink-mute 0 0 (You might need to change the first 0 to 1, or use the sink name, if you have more than one sound card) Add a file /etc/guest-session/skel/.config/autostart/unmute-sink.desktop with this contents: [Desktop Entry] Encoding=UTF-8 Exec=unmute-sink Name=Unmute sink Terminal=false OnlyShowIn=GNOME;LXDE;Unity; Type=Application StartupNotify=false NoDisplay=true -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1076947 Title: Headphone muted in new/guest account To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pulseaudio/+bug/1076947/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1076947] Re: Headphone muted in new/guest account
I haven't taken a closer look yet, but I suspect that the case is that 1) when the first user plugs in headphones, the alsa kcontrol Speaker is muted 2) the guest account pulseaudio starts up, without any settings stored 3) the alsa card is loaded and the initial mixer settings are picked up from alsa 4) at this point the speaker port is selected as it has highest priority, so the initial state is muted, because the Speaker kcontrol is muted 5) later in startup, Headphones are selected instead, but since there are no stored setting telling it to unmute, it stays muted. ** Changed in: pulseaudio (Ubuntu) Status: New = Triaged ** Changed in: pulseaudio (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided = Medium -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1076947 Title: Headphone muted in new/guest account To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pulseaudio/+bug/1076947/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
