[Bug 1483752] Re: Trusted prompts make application inactive: Qt.application.active == false

 

Note, the app should not be allowed to record until the user says it is
ok to record (or that answer is cached elsewhere). I'm not sure what the
result of Qt.application.active staying true will have, but if it means
the app continues recording, that is not correct. Consider the user
opening the app then gets distracted by something else and doesn't
notice the prompt but the app is still recording and possibly sending it
over the network.

Title:
  Trusted prompts make application inactive: Qt.application.active ==
  false

Status in Canonical System Image:
  New
Status in unity8 package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  When a trusted prompt shows up the application becomes "inactive",
  concretely QML applications receive a signal that
  Qt.application.active has changed to 'false'.

  This is will be an issue for example in the case of the camera-app
  trying to start recording a video, a pulseaudio trusted prompt will
  show up to ask for permission to record from the microphone but the
  camera-app believing that it's become inactive will immediately stop
  the recording.
