Controls in VideoPlayer are not visible in Mako devices

[Para Siva]

The following failure is seen in http://reports.qa.ubuntu.com/smokeng/saucy/image/3155/mediaplayer-app-autopilot/ with utah-autopilot run -v mediaplayer_app.tests.test_player.TestPlayer.test_controls_visibility test case.

Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/mediaplayer_app/tests/test_player.py " , line 48, in test_controls_visibility
  self.assertProperty(controls, visible=True)
File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/autopilot/testcase.py", line 360, in assertProperty
  self.assertThat(lambda: getattr(obj, prop_name), Eventually(Equals(desired_value)))
  MismatchError: After 10.0 seconds test failed: True != Boolean(False)

The failure log is under https://jenkins.qa.ubuntu.com/job/saucy-touch-mako-smoke-mediaplayer-app-autopilot/18/artifact/clientlogs/utah.yaml

It appears that the application is launched successfully, but the controls are not visible when clicked in the video are.

The test code for this is

We try to settle on using phablet-test-run as the common middleware that we use to reproduce stuff.

Can we reproduce these failures on mako with just that?

I have not seen this failure in recent images, i.e. from 20130725.1 onwards. The last time it failed was with 20130724. Thanks

This issue is not occurring any more. No branch attached to the bug for me to mark as Fix-released. Hence marking as incomplete
