Description Kai Uwe Broulik 2013-05-09 17:34:07 UTC
My Pulseaudio has been crashing a lot lately. When this happens, I get a Phonon message if I want to remove the audio devices that are no longer available and then the mixer gets empty. Pavucontrol confirms that Pulseaudio is no longer running.
When I manually restart pulseaudio, KMix is still not showing or controlling (keyboard shortcuts) any mixers and only restarting KMix makes it work again.
Make KMix register when Pulseaudio becomes available.

Reproducible: Always
