Bug Description
In precise now, the running indicator for apps in the messaging menu is away from the app icon but in the SoundMenu they are quite near. I don't know which is what design wants but I'd prefer what we have in the messaging menu now.

According to

the current design of both menus is correct. The left column is normally reserved for radio/check/
But I don't know how up-to-date this wiki is.

Yes the icon for the sound menu should be in the 'gutter'. As for the messaging menu the implementation is spec compliant but granted there is a design inconsistency there.

Yes, please change the spacing in the sound menu to be consistent with the messaging menu, battery menu, network menu, and user menu. Thanks Conor.

I'm in a good mood today, so I'll give a +1 from Docs. The sound menu is in one screenshot though, so let's get this change is as soon as possible. Thanks!

That difference in the spacing of pips is due to the Messaging menu having elements with a radio button (the IM status menu items). In order to be equal, the Messaging menu needs to be redesigned to remove the radio buttonsor the Sound menu be redesigned to add menu items with radio buttons?
Therefore I don't see this as a problem, but maybe other solutions may exist. Opinions?
