Public bug reported:
Nothing happens when clicking 'Sound Settings...' in the indicator
applet on a fresh install of Lubuntu 17.04.
This is probably because of the following code in src/sound-service-
dbus.c:
static void
show_sound_settings_dialog (DbusmenuMenuitem *mi,
gpointer user_data)
{
GError * error = NULL;
if (!g_spawn_command_line_async("gnome-volume-control --page=applications",
&error) &&
!g_spawn_command_line_async("gnome-control-center sound", &error) &&
!g_spawn_command_line_async("xfce4-mixer", &error))
{
g_warning("Unable to show dialog: %s", error->message);
g_error_free(error);
}
}
and the fact that none of the above is installed (or available) by
default.
I 'fixed' the issue by creating a symbolic link xfce4-mixer ->
pavucontrol. Maybe pavucontrol should be tried in the above code as well
since that seems to be the default in Lubuntu?
