...and it looks like in the screenshot. They should only show the controls on their desktop.

heh whoops.

It's the same bug completely.

If you can't map audio process to a specific window, we implicitly can't also map it to a specific virtual desktop.

More incentive for me to fix that bug I guess. :)
Comment 4 David Edmundson 2020-07-17 15:26:18 UTC
How do you intend to do that?
Comment 5 Nate Graham 2020-07-17 15:33:41 UTC
I was thinking of making the media controls element not take over the task's window thumbnails; it would be displayed separately.
Comment 6 David Edmundson 2020-07-17 15:37:55 UTC
Ok, so not trying to fix the mapping bug, but making media controls generally less invasive. Sounds doable at least.
