The sound menu start the applications through GLib's g_app_info_launch(). Maybe clementine can't handle being started from a different environment?

There's another bug in that clementine doesn't show its main window when starting it from the sound menu (or the launcher) for the first time.

affects: indicator-sound (Ubuntu) → clementine (Ubuntu)

A developer said to me at github:
"That'll be a bug with the panel app you're using. It's probably setting a different environment, so Clementine is using a different theme. Report it to them instead."
