> - B sits down, switches to their account, greeter switches sound to muted status
Ah, that's the part I missed. Does that mean if you're using a screenreader and scrolling through the list of accounts, every user account name will be read out at a different volume, regardless of the volume you set at the greeter? Or does it mean that the volume you see in the sound indicator at the greeter will not, in fact, be the volume currently in effect at the greeter? The former would be an accessibility problem, and the latter would be misleading. > Matthew, you describe wanting volume/mute to be system wide. I'm guessing you would like to make SilentMode that way too? (harder technically, but seems semantically related to mute) Absolutely. On some devices, Silent Mode may be toggled by a hardware switch (as it is on iPhones and iPads, for example), so that you can set it even when the device is locked and/or in your pocket or bag. But I highly doubt any device would include the ability for software to move that hardware switch itself! -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/840777 Title: Muting sound indicator in Unity Greeter does not mute sound on login To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ayatana-design/+bug/840777/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
