Bug#424016: patch to use ALSA mixer notifications

[Steinar H. Gunderson]

Package: gstreamer0.10-alsa
Version: 0.10.12-2
Severity: normal
Tags: patch

Hi,

As discussed on IRC, mixer_applet2 wakes up every 200ms or so, possibly
reducing laptop battery life. The included patch (taken from Ubuntu,
which in turn got it from upstream Bugzilla, AFAIK) makes gstreamer
listen to the ALSA notifications, which is the "bottom" half of the
solution.
