I didn’t think that I had tinkered that much. I haven’t changed the default repos and I really haven’t installed very many packages.
The GUI often says:
Requires Restart
with a button saying
Restart & Update
but pressing the button doesn’t seem to do anything. I can manually restart of course and that seems to clear the problem. After manual restart the GUI says “Software is up to date”.
It’s all a bit confusing but I understand that in the early days there are going to be plenty of rough edges like these.
I will keep an ear out for any audio quality changes and may comment some days hence. I’ve never had a problem with audio quality and all my testing has been with actual other human beings and mostly just real calls, which does mean that the test environment is not well controlled.
