Volume Applet Sets Volume to 0% on Mute

[David Cassidy]

Binary package hint: volume.app

Ubuntu Gutsy Gibbon 7.10
GNOME Panel 2.20.0.1
Volume Applet 2.20.0 (Using GStreamer 0.10)

When using the Media Hotkeys on the keyboard to mute/unmute, the volume seems to adjust appropriately assuming the volume is muted for no more than a few minutes. Otherwise, when the volume is unmuted, the level remains at 0% and must be increased manually as opposed to the level being restored to its original setting prior to mute.

A little additional information: Further experimentation yielded that this occurs anytime the volume indicator disappears. If the volume is unmuted before the OSD disappears, the volume will restore. Afterwards, as described above, the volume is set to 0% each time and must then be increased manually.

Is it the same as Bug #126333

I'm sorry.
My last comment was a question. I forgot the question mark.

« Is it the same as Bug #126333 ? »

While the two issues could possibly be related, I don't think they are. In fact, I've not had any problem with the sound controls changing but not affecting the sound, or with the OSD that appears when the media keys are utilized.

Is this symptom still reproducible in 8.10?
