Bug Description

In Ubuntu 12.04 I was able to install Gnome Control Center and indicator-sound and launch GNOME Control Center's audio options from the "Sound Settings" option in Indicator-Sound, but after upgrading to 14.04 this is no longer possible - it loads GNOME-Control-Center showing only one or two icons, the only workaround being to manually launch "gksu gnome-control-center sound" which is less than ideal.

Wanted to update that I found a fix, specifically to edit /usr/share/applications/gnome-sound-panel.desktop and add XFCE to the OnlyShowIn line.

This is affecting me, in that even adding XFCE, or removing the line OnlyShowIn, still doesn't help. Not sure why.
