[Blocking Requested - why for this release]:

Smoke test blocker. Let's get a window.

From the log, at what times did you do which steps approximately?  It would help to be able to match the logs with the steps.

Kevin this smoketest blocker seems to have been caused by the changes for bug 1185442, can you please take a look?

Comment 7

[Kevin Grandon :kgrandon]

Not really sure I'll have time to dig into this, but might be able to if given some guidance.

Gabriele - maybe could you take a look at this?

Comment 8

[Johan Lorenzo [:jlorenzo]]

Smoke tests blocker.

[Naoki Hirata :nhirata (please use needinfo instead of cc)]

Doug, do you think you have time to work on it?  Both the gsvelto and kgrandon seem to have their hands full.

Comment 11

[Alastor Wu [:alwu]]

[Root cause]
This issue is caused by "the wrong current audio channel in sound manager".

[Situation]
When we press the volume button, the sound manager would check whether need to trigger the changeVolume().
If the screen is disable and current audio channel is "none", then we would not change the volume.

The bug1185442 removed the telephony AudioContext, which would tell the Gaia's AudioChannelService that the telephony is started, and then the AudioChannelService would notify sound manger to change the current audio channel. 

That is why this issue happened after landing bug1185442, we don't change the audio channel to "telephony" even if the call is connected.

However, this issue can be solved in bug1129882. The telephony object in call_handler would take charge of notifying the Gaia's AudioChannelService. Therefore, the current audio channel in sound manager can be set correctly.

Hi, Gabriele,
If this bug is very urgent that we can't wait for landing the bug1129882, I have another workaround can fix it [1].
Do you think we need to wait for the bug1129882 or temporarily use this workaround?
Thanks!

[Gabriele Svelto [:gsvelto]]

Yes, this is urgent so if a workaround can fix the issue we should land it ASAP.

Etienne, can you help us find who's suitable for reviewing this workaround? It's rather urgent and from what I can tell from the logs all previous reviewer of this bit of the system app have left :(
