[ubuntu-mono] [Bug 668206] Re: Default configuration (sound menu + panel)

[Greg Auger]

My testing (on a clean install) showed that after installing Banshe through the Software Centre:
 - You get a notification panel icon (there should be no notification icon, or indicator applet - only the sound menu enabled)
 - Banshee always closes to panel (it should only do so when music is playing, if music is not playing it should close)

Seeing as Banshee is going to be the default music player in 11.04 it is
important we get this right "out of the box" (without installing extra
plugins, etc). I have no doubt we'll get it sorted. I imagine this will
all be looked at by the Banshee upstream developers actually, seeing as
their stated focus for the next six months is great Ubuntu integration.

Status in “banshee” package in Ubuntu: New

Bug description:
Binary package hint: banshee

Banshee ought to ship in Ubuntu with a standard configuration - see https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SoundMenu#Banshee

Important points:
- No panel icon (both Application Indicator and Notification Area Icon should be disabled by default)
- Sound menu integration enabled by default (well almost: the option should be off by default for a new user account, but should turn itself on automatically when you first play something or add items to the music library)
- Banshee should be altered to comply with the standard behavior: it should keep playing if closed while playing, it should exit if closed while not playing, and it should restore location and other state on relaunching.
