Public bug reported: It happens that I have the phone or tablet just there on the desk for a day without actually using it. Sometimes, during that time, a snap decision is triggered, for example the WiFi password dialog.
This snap decision stays there forever, without timeout and blocks other notifications. There are 2 issues with that: 1) Because other notifications are blocked, I'd missing incoming SMS or other notifications until I deal with the WiFi password prompt. 2) If this situation is stuck for a day, after removing the snap decision, all the built up queue is delivered one by one. This leads to multiple minutes of the device annoying the user with (mostly old and outdated) notifications. See the attached video. Note that I've been swiping notifications away for a while already before deciding to record the video. There were maaaany more in the queue. ** Affects: canonical-devices-system-image Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Affects: ubuntu-ux Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Affects: unity-notifications (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Affects: unity8 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Attachment added: "notification-queue.mp4" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1606202/+attachment/4707042/+files/notification-queue.mp4 ** Summary changed: - Notification queue can build up indefinitely + Snap decisions inhibit notifications - queue can build up indefinitely ** Also affects: ubuntu-ux Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: unity8 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Also affects: unity-notifications (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1606202 Title: Snap decisions inhibit notifications - queue can build up indefinitely To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/canonical-devices-system-image/+bug/1606202/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
