*** Bug 493894 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** There's also a weird design choice that there's both "mute by reducing volume to 0%" and "mute by pressing the mute button", which means that you can go from one mute type straight into the other. Perhaps there should be two visually distinct mute icons, and perhaps I should file another bug for it? (In reply to Fernando M.

Created Bug 496272. With more context about your system from other bug reports, I see what's going on now. The first OSD you see is a "you switched devices" OSD. And that OSD has a hardcoded icon, so not seeing a mute icon there is intentional. However then you see a second "Device is muted" OSD, and there the icon is wrong. How did you get this second OSD to appear? Did you do anything specific after disconnecting your headphones?

I did nothing beyond what can be seem in the video. 1- Speaker muted (via button) at 50% volume. 2- Headphone gets plugged in (I've set it to mute [via button] at 100% volume before the recording). 3- Then I've unplugged the headphone.

This only appears when it's muted via 0% volume, but not when it's muted via button at 1% volume or more.
As I've reported in Bug 496272 , there's two states of "mute". In other words, the OSD shows the mute only when it's via 0% volume. It doesn't recognize when it's muted via button (Fn + F2) (In reply to Fernando M. Muniz from comment #8) > In other words, the OSD shows the mute only when it's via 0% volume. It > doesn't recognize when it's muted via button (Fn + F2) Fn + F1* 1- Have the speaker set to 0% volume 2- Have the headphone set to 100% volume but mute it with Fn+F1 (or press the speaker icon on the widget) 3- Connect and disconnect the headphone. Result: Only 0% volume is treated as a mute by the OSD. Maybe someone else can take over; I can't make heads or tails of this. Created attachment 181562 [details]
Number of steps to reproduce the issue.
1- Press Fn+F1 to mute while above 1% volume.
2- Connect and disconnect audio device.
Result:
The notification at the center of the screen doesn't have the mute icon on the speaker.
I attempted to reproduce this on git-master and it looks like this was fixed. Setup: Volume is set above 1% for speakers and headphones Device connection / disconnection pop-up notifications enabled Clicked the icon next to the headphones in the audio applet to mute them Disconnected the headphones In this state the audio applet shows a speaker icon without a mute symbol, as expected, for the active speakers since they are not muted Reproduction steps per comment # 10 1- Speaker muted (via button) at 50% volume. Both speaker icons in applet and OSD audio notification have the mute icon when I mute this output 2- Headphone gets plugged in Applet still has the muted audio icon. OSD notification for device connected shows the muted speaker symbol 3- Then I've unplugged the headphone. Applet still has the muted audio icon. OSD notification for device disconnected shows the muted speaker symbol I don't know what merge request contains the affected code, but this will likely be fixed on your system with 6.4.0. Please let us know if this is not the case when 6.4.0 is installed on your system. |
Created attachment 174774 [details] Notice the notification not displaying the muted icon. If I set the speaker to mute while mantaining the volume at 1% or higher, connect the headphone, then disconnect it, it will show the volume percentage and the UNmuted volume icon, even though it's supposed to show the muted volume icon.
