The design spec currently specifies that the media players should be sorted alphabetically by application name[1].

Matching subscriptions: dx-packages https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1176416 Title: UX – active sound source should be at top Status in “indicator-sound” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: Whats the problem: If a user has multiple audio players, sound sources - which show up in the sound indicator, the click target variates to control (e.g. stop) the current playing application. How it should be: The current active playing sound source should be at top. If multiple sound sources are active at the same time, show the newest at top. Most times there will be only one active sound source and therefor a fix mouse target to control the source. A side effect is, that this would also reduce the mouse distance from the initial click at the sound indicator to the desired target.
