Binary package hint: cheese

After recording a video , the Start Recording/ Take a Photo button becomes insensitive[disabled]

Steps to reproduce:
1: Record a video
2: Stop recording

Now notice the record/take photo button is not available for recording/ taking photos again.

The video recording has no problems though.

Toggling the photo/video/multiple photos buttons doesnt not help. The buttons just remain disabled

*** Workaround: ***
1 - Click the "Effects" button and return back to the video. [no need to select any effect, Simple toggling of the effect button]
 : Now the option to record/take photos is available.

2 - Restart cheese

Every time a video recording is done , the same workaround has to be repeated.

No such problems with taking photos.
