Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: gnome-media
I modified my menu to include Sound & Video -> Volume Monitor, which is
the launcher for vumeter. vumeter uses esd, and Gutsy does not install
esd, so obviously I picked the wrong menu entry. Going back I noticed
the launcher I did want was "Volume Control".
Anyways, when I launch the Volume Monitor (vumeter), I am shown a dialog
titled Error (vumeter), and the message: "Cannot connect to sound
daemon. Please run `esd` at command prompt."
How to replicate:
System -> Preferences -> Main Menu
Under Sound & Video, mark the checkbow to show Volume Monitor.
Then run vumeter:
Sound & Video -> Volume Monitor
Expected behavior:
If vumeter requires esd to run, then it should not install as part of
gnome-media, or esd should be made a dependency (???).
