That is still the old applet. The new applet should get spawned by
gnome-session and will display in the notification area if you have any
sound devices. If you have no sound devices, then it won't display.
The "mixer_applet" is basically deprecated and you should migrate to the
new applet.
The new applet is called "gnome-volume-control-applet". What is the
output of "pas aux | grep volume"?
** Changed in: gnome-media (Ubuntu)
Sourcepackagename: linux => gnome-media
Status: New => Incomplete
