I can see the same with git master from last week. Created attachment 68392 [details]
Fix volstr append error for capture channels
Fix volstr append error for capture channels (this caused one pc which has
common playback and capture volumes to not have ant sound functionality at
all since a kmix writetoHW would write bad capture volumes over playback
volumes for DAC:0)
Created attachment 68393 [details]
Fix saving erroneous capture volume values
Created attachment 68394 [details]
Fix kmix popup erroneous volume values
Created attachment 68395 [details]
Fix bad Qt connection
I'm always amazed that Qt doesn't detect this sort of thing @ compile time.

Committed on 20/09/2012 at 14:25. Pushed by esken into branch 'master'. Fix: Not set capture volume in case of error M +1 -1 backends/mixer_alsa9.cpp http://commits.kde.org/kmix/4a103ad08f62237ff6c6803ebe2dedd9afb38e61 01-kdemultimedia-4.8.0-volstr-fix.patch.gz Already fixed in trunk 02-kdemultimedia-4.8.0-read-capture-volume-fix.patch Just commited to trunk 04-kdemultimedia-4.8.0-aboutToShow-connection-fix.patch I did some changes. As far as I can see I also did the change (new line contains "contextMenuAboutToShow()") 03-kdemultimedia-4.8.0-kmixdockwidget-refreshVolumes-fix.patch I am unsure about this. When does that problem happen? I can change the volume within KMix or with alsamixer and see all volume changes and muting. Sorry, for the delay.. The issue patch 03-kdemultimedia-4.8.0-kmixdockwidget-refreshVolumes-fix.patch targeted was resolved sometime after v4.8.0 so it not needed anymore. Been quite some time so I can't remember the details.. thanks much, John Thanks for the feedback. I'll close the bug. By the way, I am currently rewriting KMix's communication infrastructure, and will hopefully not break anything that was just fixed. Currently it is not finished, but if someone is able to test a bit in about a week (trunk version) would be appreciated: http://kmix5.wordpress.com/2012/09/24/more-consistent-gui-and-updates-to-the-soundmenu/ (In reply to comment #11) > Thanks for the feedback.

Just post a comment/email me when its ready. Everything is done, and can be tested. It will also be part of the KDE4.10 beta. |
