Public bug reported: Currently the "play" button is sound indicator is inconsistent. There is a confusion between music being a background service, or a traditional app. See for example those steps:
1) (rb is not yet running) click play in indicator, rb window popup and start playing 2) close the rb window, music is still playing, so I would consider music to be a service independent from its UI (even if technically it's not true) 3) I pause the music (now I'm conceptually in the same state than when I started the session, I'm not supposed to know that rb is actually still running) 4) click "play" again, it start playing but does not popup window I think it 1) and 4) the same thing should happen. Either popup window in both cases, or don't. I personally would prefer window not poping in step 1. Related to this, taping the "play" multimedia key should have the same effect.
