:musical_score: Sound on Windows 10 (and KDE) (and wallpapers)

No.

No.
But it can have like little sparks fly off as it snaps into place.
And Cortana can then appear and congratulate you on finding this hidden feature!
And then offer you a quick link to the Windows Store, where you can purchase media mixer DLC-s, like a quick device switch button or Funny Fart Sounds Studio (TM)!
It'd be great, I'm telling you!

No repro, unfortunately. However, I think the lock screen responds to ␣. It's just annoying.

Only when it fucking feels like it...

Are you fucking kidding me? Windows opens a notification telling me to schedule a time in the future to restart. The time selector widget is no longer 2 spinners, but is some custom bullshit selector. Ok. I click on the selector to open it, and type '23'. What the fuck?! Holy shit, what was fucking wrong with having two spinners or even a textbox???
The best part is that the arrow keys do nothing either. I even clicked within the selector to make sure it had focus.
The selector in question:

I can't believe I ranted about W10 volume control without mentioning the biggest WTF of them all - NO MORE SEPARATE VOLUME SLIDERS FOR EACH DEVICE!
You only get ONE volume slider for your primary device. That's it. If you have headphones, the only way to change volume is to temporary set them as your primary device, or go through like 5-6 clicks into the bowels of audio device dialogue.
Really, Microsoft!? What did poor old volume control do to you to ruin it so?
It seems they really screwed the pooch with this one, as even the registry hack to bring back the old volume slider doesn't bring back one slider per device feature.
For an extra dose of rage, check out this thread, where increasingly irate customers are trying to explain to clueless MS support personal the problem.

Please. People get enraged at Microsoft if they change a font size by 1 point. That doesn't mean shit.

Great counter point.

If only they put the selector on the Volume Mixer, like this:
Oh well, I guess this screenshot from Windows 10 will have to be discarded...

This, for me, is the single most annoying thing about Windows 10. I don't even change my background image anymore because of it, it's going to be the same damn flower pic until the end of time. You dripped some phone design paradigms onto your Windows, silly Microsoft.

If changing the wallpaper is the most annoying thing about an OS, it must be a pretty awesome OS.

?
Oh, I think I see what you mean. Except it's two extra clicks, not 6, because the device name is a popup menu:

That is not at all what that means.

If that is your biggest complaint, then either Windows 10 is amazing, you have your priorities way out of whack, or you're full of shit.The latter two are essentially the same thing.

Oh look, it's P311 again. But this time it doesn't even have the useless icon.

Yes, that label ruins my ability to change per-device audio without going 3 levels deep into dialogs completely.
Worst. Thing. Ever.

Sounds like it totally ruins the OS
