(Get the code!)
Using Gnome-Shell 3.16 in Ubuntu 15.10, I can confirm that removing appmenu-qt5 is the only way to get the vlc tray icon to show. You can confirm the problem by attempting to start vlc in the tray:
vlc --qt-start-
With appmenu-qt5 installed, the following error is generated, and the vlc tray icon will NOT show (not even in the "drawer" at the bottom or by using "top icons" extension):
qt4 interface error: cannot start minimized without system tray bar
After removing appmenu-qt5 then vlc will be able to start properly with the above command (or starting normally will add the icon to the bottom 'legacy icon drawer' or to the panel using the "top icons" extension).
So, what is lost by removing appmenu-qt5? Is unity affected? I am hoping to not cause a problem for a system with both Unity and Gnome-Shell installed.
