Description

Not sure of the use case of a blind user using sandbox, but... I believe what is happening is we have two pulseaudio clients running on the machine each one running as the same UID but not able to see each other. (Well at least the one inside the sandbox does not see the one outside the sandbox. But both are using the same sockets in /dev/shm. Does sound resume within the sandbox? Not sure what would happen if we mount over /dev/shm from within the sandbox? That might be even worse of a security violation. I will reassign to pulseaudio to see if they have a comment. Hey I don't know what sandbox is, but I'm having the same problem just running Firefox normally. If I load a flash video first then try to start sound with any other app it wont work. On the other hand if I first have sound going from another app then I can't get sound on the flash video. (In reply to comment #2) > Hey I don't know what sandbox is, but I'm having the same problem just running > Firefox normally. I don't think that's the same problem. This is about other apps blocking (i.e. getting stuck). I think your problem is an issue with Flash, or maybe pulseaudio, but it's certainly not a bug in sandbox because you're not using it. oh ok sorry I will file a new bug then. This message is a notice that Fedora 15 is now at end of life. Fedora has stopped maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 15. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At this time, all open bugs with a Fedora 'version' of '15' have been closed as WONTFIX. (Please note: Our normal process is to give advanced warning of this occurring, but we forgot to do that. A thousand apologies.) Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, feel free to reopen this bug and simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were unable to fix it before Fedora 15 reached end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged to click on "Clone This Bug" (top right of this page) and open it against that version of Fedora. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping |
