[Bug 733285] Re: Focus indication on playback controls is misleading

 

** Description changed:

- Binary package hint: indicator-sound
+ indicator-sound 0.6.2-0ubuntu1, Ubuntu 11.04
+ indicator-sound 12.10.2+13.10.20131011-0ubuntu1, Ubuntu 13.10
  
- When you hover the mouse over the playback controls of a music player,
- the "Play" button highlights to indicate focus. This is misleading: the
- user might think that clicking outside the actual controls will execute
- the play action or might think that for whatever reason Play is the only
- action possible. ALL three buttons, Previous, Next and Play, should be
- highlighted on hover.
+ 1. Open the sound menu.
+ 2. Hover over, or use arrow keys to navigate to, the Back/Rewind button.
