[indicators]/OSD provide no visual clue that they modify bluetooth device volumes

Are there any update on this bug?

@johnlea - it seems you are not addressing the issue, perhaps because I was unclear. The problem is not that phones don't indicate a change of volume, but rather that they don't indicate they are changing the volume of a paired bluetooth device.

So this bug is a request for a visual differentiation between the UI shown for on-device volume, and off-device-bluetooth volume.

I have edited the description of the bug

When will this bug be worked on? It has been raised by our OEM partners as a priority. I have removed the 'desired resolution' text placed by johnlea, as it was clearly not correct.

Any updates on this bug?

Any updates on this bug?

I can find no mention of volume notifications changing according to the paired accessories. Where is that?

Please use this icon to replace the volume icon. The icon is bluetooth volume which we had design already.

I'm looking at this bug and I have some questions:

I understand that the icon we need to change is the right icon on the volume slider, isn't it?

Let's just put a label (rather than an icon for each) up on screen within the overlay to indicate what the user is affecting.

ie:
* ringer
* alarm volume
* bluetooth
* headphone jack
* HDMI Audio
* USB Audio

Yes, just a label sounds better than having custom icons for each output type.

That will need translations so moving to next ilestone

Due to packaging and dependency issues this feature has missed OTA-8.
We'll land it early in the OTA-9 cycle.

This also landed by mistake, and had to be reverted.
The feature is still being tested in silo 51.
