Well, I'm embarrassed to say that updating to 13.10 just now fixed my sound menu issue completely. I'm not sure why it persisted through my last upgrade (to 13.04) and not this one, as both were clean installs. The only thing I can think of is that last time I kept my Fast Track plugged in during

Well... bah. I guess we have a couple of options? - you could walk me through installing debug symbols, whenever you have the time. I'm sure it wouldn't be easy, but I'm game if you are. - if there is some sort of changelog for gnome-control-center, we could still look back through it to the

1) Yes, I have the same issue when running a clean install of ubuntu. It was the first thing I tried when I installed quantal a year ago, in the hopes that it was a cinnamon and/or raring issue. No dice. If it would help at all information-wise I could run pactl through the unity desktop? I have

Having done some research on applying patches, and not being exactly sure where to get the source to apply this patch to (and not being totally sure what program I'd be getting the source for, precisely), I think that it would be really super if one of you are able to provide me with a 13.04 ppa

If you wouldn't mind letting me know how to apply patches, I think I should be able to do it. I'll be applying it to gvc-mixer-control, or...? I'd also certainly use a ppa, really whichever approach takes up less time for you. I'm headed out the door to go to work, but I'll be back this afternoon

I am still using 13.04 currently, yes. I certainly wouldn't mind a ppa, but I'm able to use the command line and all if I were given the proper steps to take. The above steps don't look too daunting, but I think I would need a bit more direction if I'm to go the non-ppa route. Would a ppa be much

Hey, I'm a bit confused... this bug and another (#152561 ) have both been marked as invalid, and the reason given is that it has already been reported. So where is the original bug? Why aren't they being merged together? Is this something that was deemed a non-issue in 2007 (or earlier) and now
