Public bug reported: Karmic Alpha4 still uses the Alsa backend for playing event sounds with libcanberra.
The problem is that we (the people that use ubuntu) get less features than other distro people. For example: http://0pointer.de/blog/projects/oh-nine-sixteen.html "Surround Sound Support for Event Sounds" https://tango.0pointer.de/pipermail/pulseaudio-discuss/2009-August/004720.html "Hmm, Ubuntu didn't use the pa backend for libcanberra? Oh my!" So it seems to be a really good idea to switch to the pa backend. ** Affects: libcanberra (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- ubuntu doesn't use the PA backend of libcanberra https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/413567 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
