Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: indicator-sound

Ubuntu's system menus ("indicators") are inconsistent in how settings
are changed. The primary settings are set in the session menu's "System
Settings", time is changed in "Time and Date Preferences", password is
changed in "About Me" and the bluetooth menu just uses "Preferences". I
suggest we follow Gnome Shell's example and use "__ Settings" for each
of these.

The Gnome HIG is clear that Settings & Preferences buttons should not
have ellipsis, as ellipsis implies further input is required.
http://developer.gnome.org/hig-book/unstable/controls-buttons.html.en

The button should therefore be "Sound Settings."
