Bug Description

Scenario:
You are using your device as an mp3 player, a call comes in.

Report against:
Maguro on image r48

Issue:
Currently the call ringer, rings on the phone, pulling the audio of the music of the headset and onto the device, when you accept the call it transfers the music and call to the headset. When you end the call the music is transferred to the phone again.

Steps:
1. Plug in your wired headset (I assume it will be the same for bluetooth once they connect and work)
2. Start the music app and start playing a play list of track
3. Ring the device
4. Note what happens with the music, call and ringer tone

Expected:
I expect the music to pause (Yet to land so this can continue till it does), I expect the ringer to ring in the headset not the device, I expect the call to be in headset not the device, I then expect the music to continue playing in the headset.

if the phone has FM radio tuner, should it mute the radio or stop the radio to save power ?

When I ring the phone with music playing and headphones on, all audio routes to the phone speaker and if I hang up the call it routes back to the headphones.

Looking at this generically, the expected behavior should be to pause any audio playback when a call comes in and when a call is active. When the call is ended (or ignored), the music should resume.

once the media-service is in place, all audio playback will be controlled from there. the media-service should listen to the appropriate dbus signals from ofono and pause/resume the music.

until the media-service lands, the alternative would be for the music-app to listen for those signals and do the same thing.

This seems to be fixed in Utopic image 140.

Well, except that it still rings on the device, not the headset. But at least the call happens in the headset, even if the ringer is on the device. And a short slice of the music gets played on the device before it pauses to start the ringer. ... but it's mostly fixed.
