https://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=17700 --- Comment #3 from Joe Berkovitz / NF <joe@noteflight.com> 2012-08-16 15:15:34 UTC --- Actually, I don't think it belongs in that scenario, because the scenario is concerned with sonification of a visual interface. Thus there's no need for that scenario to consult a Show Sounds option to determine whether visuals should be displayed. My understanding of ShowSounds is that it's a method of hinting to the browser about the most appropriate modalities for certain kinds of high level interactions -- a sort of user preference that may or may not guide apps to do this or that. It would probably be implemented pretty far outside the realm of audio processing and in ways that are hard to anticipate. For instance an app might respond to Show Sounds by creating DOM audio elements rather than making use of the Web Audio API. I guess there could be another scenario but since it doesn't feel like it's about this API I'd rather punt. -- Configure bugmail: https://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the QA contact for the bug.
