Version: 3.5 (using 4.2.2 (KDE 4.2.2), Kubuntu packages) Compiler: cc OS: Linux (x86_64) release 2.6.28-11-generic The context menu of the KMix tray icon offers me the item Show Mixer Window. But that item doesn't open the big mixer window (the one with the option Hide Mixer Window in the File menu) but the small window for the master channel which is just a single left click on the icon away. I have to click on the Mixer button in that window again to show the actual Mixer Window to change anything but the master channel.
I would like to see this fixed as well. It's very disappointing. I am also using KMix 3.5 on KDE 4.2.2 (kubuntu) 2.6.28-13-generic #44-Ubuntu SMP Tue Jun 2 07:57:31 UTC 2009 i686 GNU/Linux
*** Bug 219764 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
Acknowledging bug. It is still there in KDE4.4 and trunk. It must be fixed, but it will be lengthy to find who broke it and when. Does anybody know when this bug was introduced or which version worked?
SVN commit 1140413 by esken: Fixing bug 191477 "Show Mixer Window doesn't show the mixer window" It already works, but needs some more refactoring for ensuring stabilty.

Christian, when do you expect this branch to be merged into trunk?
As KDE4.5 is now branched, I want to merge it soon. I asked Colin Guthrie if he has any outstanding changes to commit on 2010-08-01. I'll wait a bit for an answer (I need to do some fixup myself before merging), but I will definitely merge in August 2010. So I am targeting KDE4.6. Why do you ask?
Internal remark: The fix is done, but the quality is poor. Because of the KStatusNotifierItem infrastructure, I can't use the reliable standard KDE method for showing the main window. The normal show() is very unreliable (e.g. window partially hidden behind another window, on another desktop, ...). This might require a change in kdelibs (need to check this).
> Why do you ask? I was annoyed by the bug recently and wanted to look into fixing it myself, and then I found this bug report.
Internal remark: Bug 172277 is related (but no dup).
