Hi,

4.6 beta1 & beta2 both seem to suffer from kmix having reduced functionality, previously when clicking the sound icon in the tray you were presented with a nice little volume adjustment bar - now left clicking on kmix applet brings up the whole kmix-gui window.

Anyone else confirm? happened on 2 of my installs (but ident hardware) - if it's not known of by dev's give me a shout i'll report it to the bug tracker with more specific info.

Thanks

I can confirm

Usually though I always assign global shortcuts to kmix for vol up, vol down and mute

Can you please file a bug report if one does not already exist?

Someone beat me to it (not a bad thing )

For extra reference, https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=259113

The bug is still around in 4.6 RC unfortunately. (I reported bug 259113.)

Anyone else noticing that any custom global shortcut for volume up doesn't stick upon re-login? Looks like another kmix bug.

Can you reproduce the KMix global shortcut issue under a new user? Global Shortcuts in KDE are handled by a KDE-wide framework, so it should affect all applications if this is the case.

If it works fine under a new user, I recommend checking the file permissions of ~/.kde*
