Description Peter Hutterer 2014-11-25 01:50:37 UTC
Description of problem:
Bug 667789 will fix the issue with the xf86AudioMicMute mapping in the X stack and the kernel. This isn't hooked up to anything in GNOME though, so pressing the key has no effect.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
gnome-settings-daemon-2.28.2-30.el6.x86_64

How reproducible:
Generate xf86AudioMicMute (see Bug 667789 for instructions) key press and release, wait for something to happen (OSD + muted microphone).

Comment 2 Bastien Nocera 2015-02-11 16:25:16 UTC
That's easier to implement, but we might also need changes to the icon theme to support that.

Comment 6 Bastien Nocera 2015-11-18 15:11:08 UTC
gnome-settings-daemon-2.28.2-33.el6 implements this, but it is not a simple backport, so will need quite a bit of testing.

The OSD popup has missing icon. There is no microphone-sensitivity-muted icon in gnome-icon-theme-2.28.0-2.el6

Can we make a workaround for that or even disable the OSD popup?

No, this needs fixing in the gnome-icon-theme package.
