push notification ignoring silent mode

[Bill Filler]

vivid proposed build 112

- go to system settings->sounds and set Silent Mode to true
- recv a push notification from gmail or telegram

Expected results:
- the notification should appear but it should not make a sound

Actual results:
- the notification appears but the sound is still heard

This seems to work correctly in rtm but not in vivid so it's possible something didn't land in vivid perhaps?

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

I've reproduced this on vivid proposed build 114 as well. I've confirmed the setting is changing in accountsservice, but still getting the beep from push notifications.

gdbus introspect --system -d org.freedesktop.Accounts -o /org/freedesktop/Accounts/User`id -u phablet`|grep -A21 com.ubuntu.touch.AccountsService.Sound
  interface com.ubuntu.touch.AccountsService.Sound {
    methods:
    signals:
    properties:
      @org.freedesktop.Accounts.DefaultValue("false")
      readwrite b SilentMode = true;
      @org.freedesktop.Accounts.DefaultValue.String("/usr/share/sounds/ubuntu/ringtones/Ubuntu.ogg")
      readwrite s IncomingCallSound = '/usr/share/sounds/ubuntu/ringtones/Ubuntu.ogg';

      readwrite b OtherVibrate = true;
      @org.freedesktop.Accounts.DefaultValue("true")
      readwrite b DialpadSoundsEnabled = true;

push is setting the right PULSE_PROP, so maybe it's not being picked up?

I'll chase it down; thanks for the heads up.

[Ricardo Salveti (rsalveti)]

The currently implementation is still not connected with pulseaudio (it's up to the clients to check for the silent mode config value and decide to not play the file).

This will move in the future to be connected with pulse in a way that it could, by itself, play or not the file if the system-wide config is enabled (which would be basically a mute at an specific role, such as alert).

This bug was fixed in the package ubuntu-push - 0.68+15.04.20150306.2-0ubuntu1

---------------
ubuntu-push (0.68+15.04.20150306.2-0ubuntu1) vivid; urgency=medium

  [ John R. Lenton ]
  * Use settings from org.freedesktop.Accounts for silent mode, when to
    vibrate, and default sound. [client] (LP: #1426418, LP: #1427702)

  [ Samuele "Yak Shaver of the Year" Pedroni ]
  * Closing webchecker (avoids leaving goroutines around in testing). [client]
  * WatchSignal cancelling, and connectivity exposed cancelling, make
    connectivity start not leave watches behind (more goroutine
    cleanup). [client]
  * TestTakeTheBusWorks doesn't block anymore, fixed leaking of
    webcheckers. [client]
