Bug ID: 441236
Summary: Request: allow adjusting volume for applications that
are not currently playing audio
Product: kde
Version: unspecified
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: unassigned-b...@kde.org
Reporter: david.cortes.riv...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
When I click the sound widget, it's possible to change the (audio) volumes of
applications that are currently playing audio, but oftentimes one wants to
change the volume of an application *before* it starts playing, which is not
possible to do, even if the application already has a configured non-default
audio setting.
Would be nice if there could be a checkbox or similar in the sound widget
pop-up to show all applications and adjust the volume without having them
playing sound.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Put the sound widget on the taskbar.
2. Launch a web browser.
3. Click the sound widget, select the "Applications" tab (default is
"Devices").
4. Try to change the volume of the web browser before watching a video.
OBSERVED RESULT
Not possible to adjust the volume until the application starts playing sound,
even if it's currently set to a non-default setting.
EXPECTED RESULT
Should be possible to change the volume before an application starts playing
sound. Perhaps should keep a list of applications for which the volume has
previously been adjusted.
