Don't treat a digital camera as an audio-device at plugging in

[Bernard Decock]

When a digital camera is plugged in, the device is being handled an an audio-device. When you click on the pop-up-icon, you can open the device with VLC Media Player ???, with Rhythmbox ???, aso.

In which version of ubuntu is this bug?

Thank you for bringing this bug to our attention. However, a paper cut should be a small usability issue, in the default Ubuntu install, that affects many people and is quick and easy to fix. So this bug can't be addressed as part of this project.

 - This is a bug and not a papercut
For further information about papercuts criteria, please read https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PaperCut.
Don't worry though, this bug has been marked as "Invalid" only in the papercuts project.

I think this bug is a rather small usability issue. This bug has been around for some releases. It is still present in Ubuntu 10.10.
I have a Canon PowerShot SX20 IS. I don't think that the type of camera matters.

I took a screenshot. You can even generate this bug with the Ubuntu 10.10 live-cd.

There is a bug related to this problem : https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gvfs/+bug/196757 : camera automount prevents import
and a I filed a question about this issue in Askubuntu : http://askubuntu.com/questions/3996/how-to-mount-a-digital-camera-for-the-right-applications.

In my opinion one be allowed to add "camera" in the udev-rules iso of "audio".

When you plug a Sony Cyber-shot in, then you get the correct popup.
