Just wanted to add to the list of people having this same issue. All three of my machines (two Xubuntu and one Ubuntu Studio) that I updated now don't have a functioning indicator on the sound. I am not keen to having to install a workaround that includes holding updates to keep the workaround in place. Much rather this be fixed permanently. Two of my friends that I got to switch from Windows to Xubuntu also now have the same problem and now they are doubting their decision. I can't see how this is remaining a low priority since this is so visual. I am very new to the Ubuntu world and have been most pleased with Xubuntu and Ubuntu Studio and so have my friends but this is not giving a good impression to them.

Thank you for your quick response. That has worked. I will pass this command on to my friends for them to run in a terminal window. Glad to see the priority is high. As I have mentioned I am new to the linux world and quite leery of messing around with commands in a terminal window but simply copying and pasting from your command made it simple.

The part that matters (the dbus service) is launched using dbus activation.

I do think the issue is that the xfce4 panel is in gtk2, and the gtk2 sound indicator was written specifically to support xfce. see: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/1048217 Given what's in 1048217, I think comment #27 needs to be adjusted to work for lubuntu as well, and then it can be a proper fix.

[Bug 1208204] Re: indicator-sound no longer functions with xfce4-indicator-plugin
So this is my final analysis: The sound indicator has two parts: there is the part which gets loaded to the panel and displays the icons and menus, and then there is the dbus service which coordinates between the indicator and all the audio players. Both these parts exist in both the gtk2 and gtk3 version of the plugin. However, the gtk2 dbus backend is not normally used. The package does not include a service activation script so it can never get loaded automatically. The gtk2 package depends on the gtk3 package which installs a service activation script to start the gtk3 dbus backend. In raring this worked fine: the two different dbus backends were interchangable so it did not matter which one was running. However, in saucy, the gtk3 indicator backend has been rewritten and the gtk2 one has not changed, so they are now out of sync. That is why it doesn't work. The changes in the backend are very big - I think it would be difficult to port them over to the gtk2 indicator. The easy alternative is the workaround from comment 27, and a harder but more permanent fix is to bring xfce to gtk3 indicator support and dump the gtk2 one entirely. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1208204 Title: indicator-sound no longer functions with xfce4-indicator-plugin To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/indicator-sound/+bug/1208204/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 1208204] Re: indicator-sound no longer functions with xfce4-indicator-plugin
Richard, the suggestion in comment #5 is a workaround/hack for xfce users to use the old gtk2 sound indicator until this gets sorted out. It is not a suitable patch or fix by any means, since users of other desktop environments would be forced to use the old gtk2 indicator as well. Seeing as how the icon shows up, but doesn't reflect the sound status or respond to sound changes, I've got a gut feeling it's not connecting to pulseaudio properly (but I could be way off base). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1208204 Title: indicator-sound no longer functions with xfce4-indicator-plugin To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/indicator-sound/+bug/1208204/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Hmm... what you've written here doesn't really make sense. You can only use the gtk2 indicator in the current xfce packages. There is absolutely no way to load gtk3 indicators without installing a custom version of several xfce components. So whatever the problem is, it's a problem with the gtk2 indicator (because the gtk3 indicator works fine if you install those patches). Therefore your workaround is actually what needs to be done for the real fix.

@daniel: I don't think it is directly related to the xfce4 indicator applet - I'm testing gtk3/indicator-ng support from upstream, and with it the sound menu works fine, but bluetooth menu is still broken. So it is either unrelated bugs, or something fixed in indicator-sound and not indicator-sound-gtk2 and indicator-bluetooth (which has no gtk2 version). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1208204 Title: indicator-sound no longer functions with xfce4-indicator-plugin To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/indicator-sound/+bug/1208204/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1208204] Re: indicator-sound no longer functions with xfce4-indicator-plugin
Actually, I'm not sure how the reporter of bug 1219938 even got the bluetooth indicator to appear in Xubuntu given that is has no gtk2 version. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1208204 Title: indicator-sound no longer functions with xfce4-indicator-plugin To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/indicator-sound/+bug/1208204/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1208204] Re: indicator-sound no longer functions with xfce4-indicator-plugin
Note that the indicator-sound package containing the file needing the patch of message #5 was just re-released yesterday without the patch (scheduling issue?). I had to re-apply the patch. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1208204 Title: indicator-sound no longer functions with xfce4-indicator-plugin To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/indicator-sound/+bug/1208204/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
