[Bug 1396986] Re: System Settings > Sound > Ringer volume - only changes ringer volume when no other sounds playing

 

The design is at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Sound#Phone

We need to enhance the volume controls a great deal, the primary control
is supposed to be labeled based on the active role.

We currently have no way to affect the alert volume. Its far to brief a
tone to control during an alert and should have a permanent control in
the panel imo.

In fact it would be much clearer to have 4 controls in settings one for
each mode - alarm, alert, multimedia, and phone (which I assume means
ringtone). so the user could both check and control the levels.

  Version: ubuntu-touch/ubuntu-rtm/14.09-proposed r169 krillin

  System Settings > Sound > Ringer volume  is always active and always
  labelled ringer, however it only changes the ringer volume if no other
  sound is currently playing on the system.

  Controlling the currently active audio function is as designed for
  normal volume keys etc. but if the slider is going to have a
  particular function labelled then made it should only change the level
  for that audio function.
