uninvited KMix appearances

Hi,
After upgrading to the current KDE (3.5.4 rel 71.1 using smart) each time
KDE starts, the whole mixer appears on screen (it did not before).
(KMix 2.6)
This happens in 2 different computers.

Any ideas about how to stop this?

Thanks

Happening to me also and all users on same pc. Not sure, bit I think it was
the previous 3.5.4 release it started happening with. Just updated KDE
again via Zen Updater today but not rebooted yet. I'm running SUSE 10.1
x86_64.

Happening here also but running 10.0...and only does it on a certain
hardware profile.

G,

if you quit the mixer, does it really quit or dock into the panel?

Hi Uwe,
If I press the "close" button at the right of the title bar of the mixer
window, the little icon of the blue loudspeaker remains docked on the right
hand side of the panel(just next to the clipboard icon).

Even if I "quit" it (and the icon disappears), it appears again the next
time I log in into KDE.

It is not a big problem, it is just that if there is a solution, I would
like to stop it doing so.

I can always wait until 10.2 :-)

Cheers,

-G-

Right click on the kMix icon and choose Show Mixer Window. Click on
Settings in the menu and choose Configure kMix. Unclick Enable system
tray volume control. Make sure Restore volumes on login are checked.

Hm. In the KDE control center, what's the session manager setting? By default it is "On login: Restore previous session"
Sounds like yours is set to "Restore manually saved session"

I encountered the same problem just today after updating KDE, so it is not fixed for Suse 10.1

No, it is set to "On login: Restore previous session".
Thanks for the suggestion, anyway.

This does not do prevent the mixer to be maximised, only not to allow the
tray volume control.
I am sure it will be sorted in a near upgrade.
Thanks anyway,
