Bug Description

Binary package hint: gnome-media

This is a regression - it worked in Edgy but does not in Feisty.

The mouse wheel on my mouse does not scroll the volume sliders in gnome-volume-control up and down. It correctly scrolls sliders in other places in the system - the gnome volume applet or mouse settings applet in control center.

If I can provide any further information to diagnose this please let me know.

fixed with that upload:

 gnome-media (2.17.91-0ubuntu1) feisty; urgency=low
 .
   * New upstream version:
     - rename polypaudio to pulse audio in media system preferences.
     - modularize configure.in to allow individual enabling/disabling
       of components (note that this was a gnome-love bug, patch was
       provided by Rene Vahtel).
     - call g_thread_init() in each gst app to make sure threads are
       enabled before we use slice memory. (Ubuntu: #80737)
     - fix regression in 2.17.90 where for some users, the mouse wheel
       could no longer adapt the volume. (Ubuntu: #82737)
     - fix potential crash-on-startup in gnome-volume-control.
     - fix function returning w/o return value in gnome-cd.
     - remove Application as category for gnome-volume-control desktop file.
     - accessibility bug fixes in gnome-sound-recorder.
   * debian/patches/03_menu_changes.patch:
     - updated
   * debian/patches/06_autoconf.patch:
     - updated

I re-open this since a regression has caused this to appear in Lucid Alpha 3. Worked fine in Karmic, but the new volume control in the Indicator applet doesn't listen to scroll events. Only after having expanded it, scrolling on the slider works. This requires two extra mouse clicks (show + hide). Right, the hide is implicit when selecting another window, but still.
This has worked beautifully for a long while, hence should continue to function as expected.

The lucid issue is a different one, don't reopen this bug which has been closed, there is also a new bug on indicator-sound for the new issue

Sorry, you're probably right, altough I find nothing about this particular issue. Will continue in the indicator-sound bugs though.
