Volume capplet gone from notification area

Don't confirm bugs you created.

But on the issue, I agree. new applet was working fine.
Why the removal?

the notification area icon and the applet have only one slider, what else is in the icon and not in the applet on your installation?

The notification area icon was removed--it is no longer there. The functionality of the applet is not the same as the notification icon was---the applet opens a mixer & the notification icon opened a control panel to change default sound prefs & basic volume/alerts volume---I no longer have that control....

Sorry about the confirm---have lost basic function as far as sound theme--is a regression

thank you for your bug report, it has been decided to use the intrepid version because the jaunty ones have several limitations, you can look at the gnome-media buglist, not sure what you consider possible in the jaunty version which was not there in intrepid, the new capplet doesn't work when using alsa directly, doesn't allow to control other channels or numeric sources either

Then would it be feasible to upload in a new package that new-capplet.
So users would be able to use /w PA.?

Also testing is crucial, if this is going to be default in jaunty+1
Maybe someone talented is able to patch it, if using alsa directly and users using PA.

Also, could the "old" control panel be re-enabled? I have no control over sound-themes or alert volume.

++ for re-adding the new one that you just removed.
This is NOT a LTS release so we're good to go on somewhat experimental features.
Maybe it's just me but with more testing maybe we can get pulse-audio + features faster on the stable side.

Yes---please either allow the old control panel or allow us to have the new capplet back.....

could you state clearly what you want, such comments are not really useful there, the old gnome-volume-control is available and you can run it, the gnome-control-center change to use the gnome-sound-properties from intrepid has not been uploaded yet but that's neither a gnome-media issue or an applet one if that's what are your concern there

Sebastien--I thought I was clear enough--There now is no way to change the default sound theme or default alert volume other than thru gconf. The capplet had a button to enable that control panel--before it, you could just goto gnome-control-centre and use the control panel. It has been removed.

The crux of the problem is that when you removed the capplet, it caused more than just the capplet to leave....availability to easy access of the control panel was removed also.

Moving to confirmed as now the user has lost the system setting preferences GUI to turn off system sounds.

As of today's updates I now have a Sound pref panel back in System>Preferences & yes, it looks like the Intrepid panel. Thank you...now I at least shut off system sounds when I need to again.

Fix released - Sebastien is the maestro thankyou.
