Ross: "we would have to advise users to manually edit their conf file to set StartMinimised to false." They may not be able to. A not uncommon use of qjackctl is to have it set to start with session in order to run jack at that time. So the user upgrades, reboots and finds they can't do anything... including start an editor to edit qjackctl's config file. The worst part of this, is that there is not real indication to the user that qjackctl is the problem. I don't know qt or I might try just disabling that option: remove that checkbox. Quite honestly, I have a little piece of code (in python) that I copied and use the same code for any of my own systray uses. I don't have a clear understanding of how systray or indicators work. My GUI work has been tk/tcl and fltk.

Status in Ubuntu Studio: New Status in qjackctl package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in qtbase-opensource-src package in Ubuntu: Invalid Bug description: Setting Qjackctl to "Enable system tray icon" does not display Qjackctl's icon and the menu provided by qjackctl from systray is blank. Further setting Qjackctl to "Start minimized to system tray" makes the application unusable. A reboot after Qjackctl to "Enable system tray icon" and "Start minimized to system tray" are set, starting Qjackctl not only doesn't show Qjackctl's icon, but the mouse stops working correctly: The mouse moves ok, but does not have any hover effect or clicks so the menu no longer works and the only way to kill qjackctl is with control-alt-F1 (which does still work). Qjackctl is the main application used for controlling Jackd or jackdbus for those using any of the pro audio software.
