Chris Coulson: your patch in the upstream bug report looks nice and I hope it is accepted.
While one is able to work around the CPU usage issue with the autospawn = false hack, there is still this problem for those of us not using PulseAudio: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome- media/+bug/400973 In Ubuntu 9.04/GNOME 2.26, I am still able to access my gstreamer sound preferences, event sounds, and control any chosen OSS4 volume with my keyboard's media keys, as long as gstreamer-plugins-bad is installed. PLEASE do not bork this in Ubuntu 9.10. If I need to open a new bug in GNOME's bugzilla to make them realize this is not just a "distribution problem" please let me know. -- gnome-volume-control-applet takes up to 40% cpu https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/400820 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
