[Bug 1331460] Re: vlc sound-menu entry broken 14.04

 

> @Lars even mine is `false` it does work perfectly. So it should be
some thing else.

What do you mean by "work perfectly"? Does the sound menu display the
VLC menu item as senstive and when you click it, VLC's main window is
raised? If so, that would be a bug in the sound menu, because it
shouldn't allow that when 'CanRaise' is false.

Can you give more detail on how to reproduce this state? I always get an
insensitive menu item, no matter whether VLC is playing something or
not.

Please note that starting VLC from the sound menu when it is not running
works fine, as does controlling playback through the menu.

Title:
  vlc sound-menu entry broken 14.04

Status in “indicator-sound” package in Ubuntu:
  New
Status in “vlc” package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  I can observe some weird behaviour (see also http://askubuntu.com/questions/481713/vlc-sound-menu-integration-broken-14-04 )
  where the sound-menu entry is insensitive to anything, only when vlc is running; when closing vlc one can use the entry to open it again, but as soon as it is running the entry becomes insensitive (which means, that the back/forward/play buttons do not work) again; 

  Moreover the multimedia-keys do not work for vlc.

  All other players spotify, gmusicbrowser, gnome-mplayer work
  flawlessly...

  I'm Running ubuntu 14.04 and vlc 2.1.4
