[Bug 1482282] Re: Clock app buttons vibrate when "Other vibrations" is off

>From my testing, it seems QML components derived from the SDK
AbstractButton [1] do not seem to obey the "Other vibrations" settings.
Clock app does not have any individual settings that overrides the
system's vibrate setting.

In the clock app settings page, we do have a settings option called
"Vibration", but thats meant for Alarms, that is when an alarms rings, a
snap notification is shown along with the alarm ringtone played and
vibration. That vibration is what the settings option is meant to
enable/disable.

Those are two different use-cases.

Also the issue of AbstractButton not obeying the system "Other
Vibrations" settings was reported previously at bug 1466659. As such I
am marking this bug a duplicate. If you want the string "Vibration" to
be changed to "Vibrate on alarm", please create a new bug report to
track that issue.

   Disabling "Other vibrations" in Sound settings is not working as expected.

Title:
  Clock app buttons vibrate when "Other vibrations" is off

Status in Ubuntu Clock App:
  New
Status in ubuntu-ui-toolkit package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Ubuntu 15.04 r82

  1. In System Settings > "Sound", turn off "Other vibrations".
  2. Launch the Clock app.
  3. Tap "Add City".
  4. Tap the back button in the header.

  What happens:
  3. The phone vibrates.
  4. The phone vibrates.

  What should happen:
  3. The phone doesn't vibrate.
  4. The phone doesn't vibrate.

  This might be the result of confusion with the Clock app's "Vibration"
  setting. It's understandable that the Clock app might want its alarms
  to vibrate, but that does not mean its buttons should regardless of
  System Settings. Probably the setting should be relabelled "Vibrate on
  alarm" or similar.

  Separately, this is a toolkit issue. The Clock app appears to be using
  a standard header control, but somehow even the header's buttons are
  not following the "Other vibrations" setting. If following that
  setting is something app developers have to remember to do, inevitably
  sometimes they will forget. They shouldn't have to remember.
