Created attachment 130202 [details] Screenshot ...and it looks like in the screenshot. They should only show the controls on their desktop.
heh whoops.
It's the same bug completely. If you can't map audio process to a specific window, we implicitly can't also map it to a specific virtual desktop. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 409980 ***
More incentive for me to fix that bug I guess. :)
How do you intend to do that?
I was thinking of making the media controls element not take over the task's window thumbnails; it would be displayed separately.
Ok, so not trying to fix the mapping bug, but making media controls generally less invasive. Sounds doable at least.
