Bug Description

Following paragraph seems to be not totally correct for me:

»A volume icon, sitting on the top right corner of the screen, provides quick access to different audio related functions. Left clicking on the volume icon shows up a slider button which you can move horizontally to increase/decrease volume. Right clicking on the volume icon allows you to choose between muting the sound and Sound Preferences. Selecting \emph{Sound Preferences} opens up another window which provides access to sound themes, hardware, input and output preferences. Sound Preferences can also be found if you go to \menu{System \then Preferences \then Sound.}«

I think, all audio related functions - including muting and Sound Preferences are available on a left click. The right click enables you - like on all other applets - to move and remove the applet.

Should we break the string freeze or fix it in lucid edition 2?

In my opinion this is a rather inimportant bug. If a user follows the given instructions he will see that all functions are available on a left click. This bug alone doesn't justify a string freeze break. I just filed the bug to inform the authors. For me it would be okay to fix it in a later edition.

Hi guys,

You are right. It was a mistake on my part. All the options are available on
left click.
I think we should fix it solely because it would be very wrong in our part
to allow incorrect information in the manual.

Regards,

Sayantan Das
