ochosiUnit193: sean also seemed to lean towards pushing point releases downstream, so I guess I'll just try to get this finished asap07:08
Unit193Defer to him over me on this stuff, but yay. \o/07:10
bluesabreochosi: thanks! And yeah, releases are good :)11:46
Unit193https://deb.li/J6Jd wait what?  Sounds on volume change is desired?21:50
ochosiUnit193: I think it's an ok optional feature to have (other OSs have it too)22:00
ochosialso, as opposed to the original MR, it's disabled by default22:00
arraybolt3[m]I like it when my system does that.22:00
Unit193Thankgoodness disabled by default. :D22:00
Unit193https://hg.guido-berhoerster.org/projects/package-update-indicator/rev/f27122a7bb02 \o/22:00
arraybolt3[m]Let's me know that the speakers are working and that the sound volume really did change.22:00
Unit193(We don't use package-update-indicator, but it's a great option if one doesn't want the Ubuntu update stuff.)22:02
ochosicool22:02
Unit193..I use this ~elsewhere~ too by default, so of course I'm the maintainer in Debian now. >_<22:06
ochosi:D22:08
ochosithis one I'm actually unsure about... https://gitlab.xfce.org/panel-plugins/xfce4-pulseaudio-plugin/-/merge_requests/522:09
ubottuMerge 5 in panel-plugins/xfce4-pulseaudio-plugin "Show volume notification even if volume is already at max/min" [Opened]22:09
ochosinot showing a notification atm is intentional, because there's no volume _change_, but I see how not showing a notification anymore can be confusing22:09
ochosiI think some notification daemons show some "overshoot" effect when this happens22:09
Unit193That'd be helpful, too bad xfce4-notifyd can't. :>22:15
ochosinot yet, at least22:22
ochosiI'm curious how Gnome handles this case (cause they do have this particular feature implemented)22:22
ochosimaybe there's an additional hint in the notification spec that they added that we could piggy-back on22:22
Unit193I use over 100% sometimes, so I'd appreciate such a feature but by no means is it critical.22:30
ochosisame here22:31
ochosimostly curious22:31
Unit193Anything else I can/should do?22:37
Unit193Ah yes, pick up the new notifyd...22:38
ochosiI'll soon try to do another pulseaudio release22:38
ochosihopefully this week22:38
ochosithe 'overdrive' support in gnome shell is a little involved and not really using the notification spec at all22:39
ochosithey handle volume and brightness events separately22:39
Unit193Of course they do...22:39
ochosiok, I think I have a rough idea what is needed, and it's not even hacky22:47
ochosifirst we'd need support for it in pulseaudio-plugin (currently we seem to cap volume increases at 100% - so likely an option to allow 'overdrive')22:47
ochosithen support for it in notifyd is not that hard22:47
