** Description changed: Ubuntu 11.10 beta compiz 1:0.9.5.94+bzr2803-0ubuntu5 unity 4.16.0-0ubuntu1 1. open banshee, start a song in it and minimize 2. open another application lets say gnome-terminal 3. click on the sound menu and select banshee What happens banshee icon in the launcher wiggles and banshee main window is not shown What should happen banshee main window should come to focus This is a long standing bug which Ted Gould thinks should be fixed at window manager's level. ====Some other observations===== The problem wont happen 1. if every other app is minimized or 2. Banshee is the only opened app or 3. after opening gnome-terminal, banshee window is closed so that it hides to the SoundMenu and opened again =====Comment from Ted Gould===== <om26er> tedg, Hi! any thoughts on the long standing bug 627195 ? Its been there before unity so I guess we can conclude unity not to be responsible <tedg> om26er, My thought is that window managers should $%#$ get fixed... though I haven't convinced smspillaz of it yet. =====The good rule===== - Indicator-session should present the players windows by passing to them the timestamp of the menu item activation event. - Unfortunately this is not trival as it sounds, since it needs a change to the MPRIS dbus specification. + Indicators should present the application windows by passing to them the timestamp of the menu item activation event. + Unfortunately for indicator-sound, this is not trival as it sounds, since it needs a change to the MPRIS dbus specification. See comment https://bugs.launchpad.net/ayatana-design/+bug/627195/comments/26 for more informations. Window managers will obey to it.
