I don't know how to determine this.  It's not any of the choices that are
listed currently under gnome-control-center -> Appearance; it may have been
a custom selection (back when GNOME supported custom selections), with a
standard theme and a different icon set.

However, I've selected 'Ambiance' now, and the sound indicator *still*
doesn't appear.  Output from indicator-loader3 is now:

$ /usr/lib/libindicator/indicator-loader3
/usr/lib/indicators3/7/libsoundmenu.so

(indicator-loader3:16971): libindicator-WARNING **: IndicatorObject class
does not have an accessible description.

(indicator-loader3:16971): Gtk-CRITICAL **: gtk_widget_realize: assertion
`widget->priv->anchored || GTK_IS_INVISIBLE (widget)' failed
^C
$

And I get the same blank window as before.

Even if selecting a default theme resolved it, this is still most certainly
an Ubuntu bug.  The theme I used was packaged in Ubuntu; it was installed by
default in Ubuntu; and I used a GUI included in the default Ubuntu install
to configure it.  If this icon theme is to no longer be supported in Ubuntu,
then it should be removed from the default install (saving space on the
Ubuntu CDs and on users systems), and settings should be automatically
migrated for the user on login after upgrade.  Certainly, though, it would
be far better if there were a clear way for someone to *fix* this bug by
providing any missing icons as necessary; I would gladly do so myself if I
could make heads or tails of the problem.

Now, that's not to say this is the highest priority bug in Ubuntu.  But as a
project, we should own it, because it's of our own making.
