Thanks for the bug report. Sorry that no one has responded in so long...

When left clicking on the icon, the wallpaper randomly changes. That is the intended behavior. To access the preferences, right click on the icon.

Wallpaper-tray has been completely rewritten in C++ and is now a panel applet. This new version is now in Jaunty (9.04). Can this issue be reproduced with the new version?
