> (b) automatically reflect, and adjust, the system volume for the active output role, without the app having to do anything at all;
i dont think that works, the item should have a way to select for which role you want the volume change since we auto-change roles all the time. what if a notification goes off while the app is open ? you will suddenly adjust the notification volume. what if your app uses a certain role that only gets activated if you actually play a sound. my alternate webapp container framework allows to enable haptic feedback and click sounds for links in websites, if i enable that i can see the volume indicator jump to full volume for the lenght of the sound. if i would want to provide the mentioned slider to adjust the sound effect volume it would always only point to the main system volume unless the effect is played. the toolkit widget should have a field to define the type of role you want it to change. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to indicator-sound in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1389761 Title: Don't show the volume overlay when changing the volume with the slider Status in indicator-sound package in Ubuntu: Triaged Status in ubuntu-system-settings package in Ubuntu: New Status in ubuntu-ui-toolkit package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: The overlay and the slider are redundant when the user changes the volume with the slider and the overlay shouldn't be displayed.
