Highly visible bugs prior to 4.12 release

[Liviu Andronic]

Dear all,
I would like to draw attention to yet another not critical (as per
https://wiki.xfce.org/releng/4.12/roadmap/critical-bugs ), but still
highly visible UI issue, namely:
https://bugzilla.xfce.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8583


I suspect that virtually every user of Xfce 4.10 (at least a large
share of Xfce users) is encountering this issue a couple of times per
week, and for non-technical users this effectively means that "sound
doesn't work in Xfce". For instance, see this recent and lengthy
discussion when this very issue affected yet another confused user:
http://xfce.10915.n7.nabble.com/Problem-with-Sound-settings-td45048.html


IMO it would be a good idea to try to tackle this bug prior to a major release.

Regards,
Liviu
