Bug Description

Binary package hint: ekiga

This is a simple interface bug, here's how I found it:

I had ekiga running on screen, I also had empathy running on screen. I plugged in a webcamera and got a useful popup dialog asking me if I wanted to use this device as my default for audio. But if I hadn't seen it before I wouldn't have known that it came from ekiga (I actually plugged the webcam in to try something in empathy).

I suggest that the dialog be renamed to 'Ekiga - Audio Devices' or the text include a reference to ekiga like: 'Ekiga has detected a new audio device' or both!

It is a bit more complicated now, because notification is used now for that, and I do not know if it is notify responsability to print program name or each program should print its name in notification dialog.
