Hello. I founded bit annoying that screen turns on and enables touch, while adjusting volume from keys during phone call. Causes random effects while phone is on ear. I'm using XA2 now and I don't remember this happening in Jolla 1

thats not supposed to happen because of the proximity sensor switching off touch input when holding the phone to your head during a call.... but there are some problems with the proximity sensor and the XA2 as you could see in the last couple release notes....

this happens also on media playback. Sailfish X, 3.0.3.10

That behaviour has always annoyed me too...

Luckily it can be fixed using mcetool:

mcetool --set-exception-length-volume=0

You may have to install mcetool first:

devel-su pkcon install mce-tools
