Description Mathias Homann 2022-05-02 05:38:48 UTC
SUMMARY
Whenever I set my notifications to "silent until such time" the sound stays muted if i log out and log in only after the time when the notifications should be unmuted


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. mute your notifications for some set time, i.e. "until tomorrow"
2. take note of the actual time when the notifications should unmute, i.e. 6:00am
3. logoff
4. stay away from that account until **after** the time from 2., then log in again


OBSERVED RESULT
After logging in, notifications are unmuted but the sound for notifications, for example the "pop" sound from kmix when you change volume, is **not**

EXPECTED RESULT
I expect **all** notifications to be unmuted, including sound

Fun fact: this can easily lead to believing that sound has stopped working, triggering some longish bug search o.0.

Yeah there's definitely something wonky with how it determines whether to unmute or not
