adjusting the volume by scrolling over the sound indicator is impossible

[Pierre-Olivier Megret]

Usually , I'm setting sound volume by scrolling with mouse wheel on sound indicator . After last update/upgrade it's impossible again.

In Contrast, setting volume by clicking on Sound icon and scrolling on volume bar is OK .

TEST CASE

1.) Place cursor over sound indicator
2.) Scroll mouse wheel or use the touchpads scroll function

EXPECTED RESULT

Sound level changes according to the scrolling action

ACTUAL RESULT

Nothing happens

However, opening the menu and placing the cursor over the volume bar then scrolling work fine.

Hi,

I can't seem to reproduce this (scrolling on both the indicator itself and the volume bar on the indicator works fine) and we both have the same indicator-sound version. Are you sure you've applied all updates?

Thanks,

Hi Brendan

Yes I confirm I can't set volum by scrolling on indicator . all updates applied ... while I was testing this indicator a few seconds ago to be sure I had other problems but I can't reproduce them .

[Brendan Donegan (brendan-donegan)]

Trying it again and I can confirm. I must have done something before to 'unstick' it. There seems to be a few problems with this indicator which might be interelated so I'll try and find the appropriate bugs and post them here.

tagging as regression since it was working (but behavior was broken) in Oneiric until recently.

It was even fixed (bug 801022)

Have a dupe of this bug so would report here that this issue was fixed with the upgrade of unity (4.6.0-0ubuntu1)
"Unity doesn't get any mouse wheel scroll event in Indicators InputArea"
    bug 814574

[Jean-Baptiste Lallement (jibel)]

I'm closing this report. It is fixed with latest updates.
