Description daryl herzmann 2007-11-01 21:49:54 UTC
I have the same issue on RHEL5 after launching k3b over ssh.

+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #140262 +++

From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.2)
Gecko/20040804 Galeon/1.3.17

Description of problem:
If artsd is launched from within GNOME (as opposed to when KDE is set
as the desktop) then it will continue to run after the user logs out.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
arts-1.3.1-1

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Log into GNOME.
2. Start a terminal.
3. Run
noatun /usr/share/sounds/KDE_TypeWriter_Bell.ogg
(this will actually fail since noatun doesn't work with wavs but 
4. Quit noatun.
5. Log out of GNOME.
6. Log into a virtual terminal.
7. run ps auxw | grep artsd
    

Actual Results:
An artsd process is found.

Expected Results:
No artsd process to be running.

Additional info:

We are seeing this a lot in the small computer room we have because
users sign in and out all the time and use things like K3B from GNOME.
I'm not sure if this is leading to sound problems (i.e. the device
can't be obtained when they log into GNOME because the soundcard has
no hardware mixing and is kept open by artsd).

This does not happen if the Desktop Environment is set to be KDE.

This is still here in FC4's arts-1.4.2-0.fc4.1

This is still here in FC5's arts-1.5.2-0.1.fc5 . Perhaps this should be filed
against the devel version?

Still here on FC6 with arts-1.5.6-0.1.fc6

Hi, thanks for the message.  I am not able to reproduce this with RHEL5.5.
