Version: 1.0.0 (using KDE 4.3.4) OS: Linux Installed from: Fedora RPMs Since the update to Digikam 1.0.0, when I start Digikam for the first time after rebooting the PC I get a notification window that says pulseaudio device (input and output) was removed from system. However (I choose not to save the change) the sound still works after this notification. How to Reproduce - Reboot the system - Start Digikam 1.0.0 - A notification window appears, but sound is still working
I'm quiet sure that this is not caused by digikam. I suspect a configuration error in your kde sound system.
I know it's strange... the first time I thought that was a coincidence, then I realized this error shows up every time I start digikam. I'm not sure how to hunt this problem. However, if no one else is having this behaviour is a confirmation that something strange happened with the latest updates in my configuration :-(
Maybe digikam is the first application trying to use your sound system or a special feature of phonon?
Yes we use phonon to play video file as preview. Gilles Caulier
After creating a new test user I'm quite sure this error is related to something wrong in my configuration. Starting digikam within the new user account doesn't trigger this error. I noticed that in KDE control panel -> Multimedia, under peripherals I have in my personal user account a "PulseAudio Sound Server" that is always greyed out (it says "device not installed or driver not loaded"). In the new user I haven't it. I think this entry is related to a previous version of Pulseaudio that has been removed, but not from my list of devices (in both account I also have a "PulseAudio" device that is the default). Strange is that only Digikam 1.0.0 triggers this notification, not previous versions, nor other programs. I think you can close this bug... sorry for the false reporting!
Thank you for your feedback.
Not reproducible since digiKam use QtAV + ffmpeg to handle video files
