When I stop playing a local mp3 file using the system tray icon, playback stops and the song gets restarted before fading out. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Play local mp3 file 2. Right click on the Amarok icon in the system tray 3. Left click on "stop" Actual Results: 1. sound stops 2. song is restarted 3. fades out Expected Results: fading out without stop and restart I'm using KDE 4.9.1 and the gstreamer backend (Pulseaudio is desease !).
Could you please try the phonon-backend-vlc and see if you can reproduce this?
After further experiments, it seems that this only happens when stopping playback for the first time after system start. (NOTE: I already noticed this issue on my old system (KDE 4.7x) and I'm pretty sure it happened every time there...) Using the the VLC-backend, there is no stop-restart issue, but fading-out doesn't work (volume doesn't change). Seems to be a separate bug...
Yes, that would be indeed a different bug. Reassigning to the phonon-backend-gstreamer component. Which exact version of that component do you use?
phonon-gstreamer-backend version is 4.6.1
after the first time that happens amarok's enginecontroller gets hugely confused with states... would not be surprised if that is in fact an amarok bug
Definitely Amarok bug, duplicate of bug 312062, I'm handling it right now. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 312062 ***
