Bug Description
Ubuntu 14.10 r203
1. Navigate to the System Settings overview screen.
2. Choose "Wi-Fi".
3. From the sound indicator menu, choose "Sound Settings...". If bug 1362017 has not yet been fixed, close the indicator menu manually.
4. In System Settings, tap the Back button.
What you see:
2. The "Wi-Fi" screen.
3. The "Sound" screen.
4. The "Wi-Fi" screen.
What you should see:
2. The "Wi-Fi" screen.
3. The "Sound" screen.
4. The main System Settings screen.
The Back button should be hierarchical, taking you to the parent of the current screen, regardless of how you got there. Otherwise it might take you to a screen that you last visited days or weeks ago, that you can't be expected to remember. And if you use indicator menus a lot, for direct access to individual System Settings screens, a history-based Back button makes getting to the System Settings overview unreasonably difficult.
Fixing this bug might fix bug 1359953 automatically.

Thanks Matthew, that's sort of duplicate of bug #1359953 , not sure we need different reports there ... Ken, what do you think?
