[Bug 105262] Re: kmix/amarok unable to unmute sound

[Richard Birnie]

Daniel,

You may be right that the problem is amarok rather than kmix, if it's a
problem at all. I originally thought it was kmix because the kde bug
that I linked in the original post suggests that Win+M does affect kmix.
But on further testing I found that other apps that use sound such as
kaffeine and realplayer were  still working.

I do not see the "Mute" overlay in amarok you describe when I press
Win+M. I tried setting the global shortcut in amarok to other key
combinations but amarok seemed to ignore the keyboard shortcut whatever
I set it too. In fact now that I've got it fixed working Amarok appears
to ignore this keyboard shortcut altogether. Currently Win+M doesn't do
anything at all

The more I dig into this the more I find I have problems with other
keyboard shortcuts in Amarok. I have Play/pause, skip fwd, skip back and
stop on my arrow keys which can be accessed by pressing Fn+arrow. These
all work except for Fn+up which should be stop. This used to work prior
to having this problem yesterday.

Anything I can try to diagnose this further, I'm at a loss? Could it be
my soundcard/driver?
