[Bug 624688] [NEW] QAudioDeviceInfo::defaultOutputDevice() depends on previous calls

[Maxim Kirillov]

Public bug reported:

package: libqt4-dev      4:4.6.2-0ubuntu5
Description:    Ubuntu 10.04.1 LTS
Release:        10.04

REPRODUCE:
compile and the following program:
---------test.cpp-----------
#include <QAudioDeviceInfo>
#include <QDebug>

int main(int argc, char** argv)
{
    Q_ASSERT(argc >= 2);
    // if this enabled; defaultOutputDevice() returns "null" device
    if (argv[1][0] == 'y') {
	foreach (const QAudioDeviceInfo &deviceInfo, QAudioDeviceInfo::availableDevices(QAudio::AudioOutput)) {
	    qDebug() << "l:" << deviceInfo.deviceName();
	}
    }
    QAudioDeviceInfo info = QAudioDeviceInfo::defaultOutputDevice();

    qDebug() << "res:" << info.deviceName();
}
--------------------
------test.pro---------
TEMPLATE = app

CONFIG += debug

QT += multimedia
QT -= gui

SOURCES = test.cpp
---------------
compile, then run:
$qmake
$make
$./test y
$./test n

RESULTS:
$./test y  
l: "pulse" 
l: "front:CARD=Intel,DEV=0" 
l: "surround40:CARD=Intel,DEV=0" 
l: "surround41:CARD=Intel,DEV=0" 
l: "surround50:CARD=Intel,DEV=0" 
l: "surround51:CARD=Intel,DEV=0" 
l: "surround71:CARD=Intel,DEV=0" 
l: "iec958:CARD=Intel,DEV=0" 
res: "null" 
$./test n
res: "pulse" 
$

EXPECTED:
the "res:" output must not depend on the previous calls. That is, it must be the same for both calls

ADD:
I tried to reproduce it at debian squeeze (qt=4:4.6.3-1), but there it ran OK;
$ ./test y
l: "default:CARD=Intel" 
l: "default" 
res: "default:CARD=Intel" 
$ ./test n
res: "default:CARD=Intel" 

I suspect is caused by pulseaudio, but not sure.
