Bug Description

Binary package hint: gnome-media

I've an USB webcam plugged (Logitech Webcam C250), providing a built-in microphone.

Everything works fine, but Audio Preferences tool show it in Hardware tab using "camera-photo" named icon instead "camera-web". Screenshot attached

PS this could be a pulsaudio issue, but I start reporting here

Reassigning to humanity. The issue is related to missing camera-web in icon theme. In fact, switching to GNOME icon theme, the proper image is showed

Long explanation: the standard icon name spec from freedesktop.org[1] provides a fallback algorithm (implemented in GTK+[2]) to pickup the proper icon, as following

<quote>
The dash “-” character is used to separate levels of specificity in icon names, for all contexts other than MimeTypes. For instance, we use “input-mouse” as the generic item for all mouse devices, and we use “input-mouse-usb” for a USB mouse device. However, if the more specific item does not exist in the current theme, and does exist in a parent theme, the generic icon from the current theme is preferred, in order to keep consistent style.
</quote>

Humanity theme provides "camera" icon (a link, generate by icon-naming-utils?), so when you search for "camera-web" or "camera-video" GTK+ will fall back to "camera" icon, ignoring the existing icons in "GNOME" icon theme.

PS this bug could be a good canditate for paper cut
