Description Jesse Keating 2006-11-28 23:02:02 EST

Easily dupable in xen.  Cryptic dialog regarding OAFIID:GNOME_MixerApplet. 
Obviously it shouldn't crash if there is no sound card.  Either silently fail or
run or whatever.  But not crash.  Poor user experience.

(this bug also exists in FC6)

Comment 1 Ray Strode [halfline] 2007-04-02 15:04:42 EDT

We fixed this I think.  It was gst-register taking so long to run that the
applet was timing out.

Reopen if you still see it.
