Indicator-sound's menu looks different on Cairo-Dock applet

[Matthieu Baerts]

Hello,

This bug is maybe not due to Indicator-Sound but since this indicator has been ported to a "service" (since we have to load /usr/share/unity/indicators/com.canonical.indicator.sound), its menu looks different when using it with Cairo-Dock or with indicator-loader.
As you can see on the screenshot (indicator-sound_loader-vs-cairo-dock.png), players menu entries reserve more spaces with Cairo-Dock.

Note: ido_init() has been called once and these new indicators are loaded with "desktop" profile.
More info: https://bazaar.launchpad.net/~cairo-dock-team/cairo-dock-plug-ins/plug-ins/view/head:/Indicator-applet3/indicator-applet3.c#L29
The code is not so big and not so different than indicator-loader: https://bazaar.launchpad.net/~indicator-applet-developers/libindicator/trunk.13.10/view/head:/tools/indicator-loader.c
The dock just loads the applet and popup the menu (IndicatorObjectEntry->menu)

Any idea of what is wrong? :)

Hm, interesting. I can't tell you what could be causing this right now. I'll have a look when I find the time.
