Description Dennis Schridde 2013-03-19 18:30:41 UTC 
I tried to make a video call with KTP, which made PulseAudio crash. KMix then switched to a questionmark-on-white-background icon and now displays no mixers in the systray popup. When opening the mixer window (from the systray popup), it displays a very tiny window without mixers and says that nothing is being played back. I even manually restarted PulseAudio from a commandline, but still KMix displays the questionmark icon and shows no mixers.

Expectation: KMix should reconnect to PulseAudio after the latter crashed and a new instance is started. In the systray icon it should display the information that PulseAudio is currently not running and offer to restart it.

Reproducible: Always
