@Robert Roth : Yup, Redesigning the Sound prefs is not a papercut . Personally , i would like a lot more sound preferences exposed ;-) This bug is to not change the default System > Preferences > Sound. Selecting the Sound prefs from the system menu would be the present behavior and open the Sound effects tab.
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SoundMenu is the new sound menu plan. During the UDS , we discussed the use cases for the sound menu. The most discussed was how to address issues of users trying to attend calls or running recordings and to control different application volumes. Often the requested "feature" was to expose the volume controls of every running app into the menu.

How often will the user be looking to change the settings in Sound Effects , Hardware,Input,Output tabs ? -- "Sound Effects" should not be the default tab in Sound Preferences https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/594396 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
