It was a shortcut created by opening settings -> sound ages ago and right clicking on the launcher and using "lock to launcher". I ended up removing the shortcut and recreating it. I presumed the binary name used by the new settings system was different from the old one, causing it not to launch properly. I sadly no longer have the .desktop file.
