[Bug 206655] New: Switching session: music keeps playing
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=206655 Summary: Switching session: music keeps playing Product: openSUSE 10.2 Version: Alpha 4 Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: KDE AssignedTo: kde-maintainers@suse.de ReportedBy: azerion@gmail.com QAContact: qa@suse.de Goodday, the thing I think I have found can be similar for Gnome but I am not sure. Tagged as an KDE-thing for that matter. When you switch to another session, the music from the old session keeps playing. In a system with more then 1 user that can be very annoying. I play music with some louder beats and if my mom wants to work she likes Mozart (theoretical situation cause I live on my own ;-) ). Sound of session 1 should be muted when in session 2. Mozart mixed with Tiesto is not what I use to call music. Don't know if there should be an option to mute it when locking the session but I guess that is not needed. I always lock the PC when I walk away but music may still play.

The reasons to switch users are as many as users. Some switch sessions to test something, some switch to gain root access for an admin task - both such use cases would want their music to continue playing. What I can imagine though is that "switch and lock" also mutes, while "switch" does not mute. But most likely not for 10.2 -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=206655 ------- Comment #2 from azerion@gmail.com 2006-09-19 04:09 MST ------- Root-users mostly use kdesu, sudo and so on. Switching a complete session for that I never heard of. But your option is the best I think. When not locked the 2nd user can turn of the music in sesison 1. But I really wonder why this have never came up in Bugzilla. I see it as a bug... -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=206655 ------- Comment #3 from azerion@gmail.com 2006-09-19 04:13 MST ------- ps. Why not for 10.2? Feature Freeze is not there yet and it seems there will be enough time for some other 'fixes'. This does not look like a big operation to me. if(locked==true AND sessionid!=soundsessionid) { mutesound(); } :P. I mean, can't be that much code....And the effect is not system changing so it's pretty 'localized' -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.

https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=206655 ------- Comment #5 from wstephenson@novell.com 2007-03-30 10:19 MST ------- A problem with Switch + lock = mute means that the new session is also muted, then turns the sound back on and gets the first session's Norah Jones suddenly. If you agree about that, We'd need a way to pause the media player instead. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.

As I mentioned in bug #250299 (https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=250299) before, lots of problems with concurrent sessions exsist in KDE3. I hope this is addressed in KDE4. I suppose there should be global session framework across the KDE, like multimedia apps pausing when _switchng_ from active session to another (or starting a new one), other single-device managing apps like kbluetooth/kppp/you-name-it correctly handle events and route them to active session (kppp should place its' icon onto newly opened session's tray if active, but with reduced functionality) and so on. There're not so much global apps that handle one system device for all users, so it's not that hard task, but not so easy too. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
