https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D278521 Bug ID: 278521 Summary: www/chromium: Change default audio output to PULSEAUDIO to make chromium to play nice with desktop environments Product: Ports & Packages Version: Latest Hardware: Any OS: Any Status: New Severity: Affects Only Me Priority: --- Component: Individual Port(s) Assignee: chromium@FreeBSD.org Reporter: yuri@freebsd.org Flags: maintainer-feedback?(chromium@FreeBSD.org) Assignee: chromium@FreeBSD.org Created attachment 250151 --> https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=3D250151&action= =3Dedit patch Nowadays it is a common expectation that when a new audio device is connect= ed, like headset, the audio IO is switched to go through this new device. This is typically done in desktop environments using PulseAudio - audio is routed to the new device automatically, in a centralized fashion. This is how it works in Firefox, but it currently doesn't work in Chromium. I am suggesting to make PulseAudio default, since most users run Chromium in desktop environments and users would benefit from it behaving nicely. --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
