round(volume) instead of floor(volume) when unmuting (728 bytes, patch)

Description Sebastien Bacher 2007-01-26 11:39:08 UTC 
That bug has been opened on https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/control-center/+bug/81203

"...
With the volume at maximum, pressing mute soft button repeatedly to switch between mute and unmute works fine.

With the volume control at anything less than maximum, pressing mute soft button repeatedly mutes, then as I press mute again, the unmute comes out of mute slightly lower volume than it was. So with the volume one notch below maximum then pressing the mute/unmute button 30 times results in the volume at the lowest level.

I know it sounds minor but it's not right.

Confirmed on a second (desktop) machine.

Here, I made a video about it :)

That happens with GNOME 2.17.90

Bastien, this seems to fix it.
Comment 3 Bastien Nocera 2007-02-01 22:40:33 UTC 
Weird, but the patch looks fine to me.

        * actions/acme-volume-gstreamer.c:
        (acme_volume_gstreamer_set_mute): round volume instead of
        truncating on unmute so a simple mute/unmute doesn't lower the
        volume (fixes bug #400966)
