Bug#737420: kmix: When reducing/ muting and then increasing again overall sound settings, banshee stays muted



Hi,

I can't reproduce the issue here, but, banshee provides a mpris2 interface to
kmix that's not enabled by default (which probably should). Maybe enabling it
solves your issue.

I this blogs the kmix developers talk about the mpris2 support:

http://kmix5.wordpress.com/2011/12/30/winter-of-69-welcome-kmix-v4/

So, to enable you need to add MPRIS2 to the backends used by kmix, so:

kwriteconfig -file kmixrc -group Global -key Backends -type string ALSA,MPRIS2

If you are using ALSA, and:

kwriteconfig -file kmixrc -group Global -key Backends -type string PULSE,MPRIS2

if you are using pulseaudio, I haven't tested the pulseaudio setup, though.

Be prepared to manually edit your ~/.kde/share/config/kmixrc if something goes
wrong (just delete the line that starts with Backends= ).

Have fun,
