1049479 - Downloading a file results in a loud sound to be played

Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX

(Firefox OS Graveyard :: Gaia::Browser, defect)

Description

[Henri Sivonen (:hsivonen) (temporarily away from Bugzilla)]

Steps to reproduce:
 1) Use Flame.
 2) Use nightly Gecko+Gaia
 3) Navigate to https://hsivonen.fi/thesis/ in the browser app.
 4) Tap the link that says "PDF"

Actual results:
When the PDF is downloaded, a visual notification appears at the top of the screen (good) but additionally a particularly loud notification sound is played. The sound is loud enough to be noticed by people nearby.

Expected results:
Expected no sound upon download. The user should be able to click a link to a PDF without their phone making embarrassing noise even if the user hasn't explicitly silenced the phone.

I expected the results:
No sound if the downloads is done soon, because the operator did not leave.

Probably coming from bug 1050023 comment 25.

I don't see why we should make the download complete notification silent. There's no way that we will know how long the download will take - if the user is downloading on a slow 2G connection (like a large number of users on our target market will be) then even small downloads could take a long time. I agree that the download started  notification should be silent, but I'm not convinced about the download complete notification.
