kazam errors out unable to find any typelib for AppIndicator3

[Sergio Callegari]

On kubuntu (and possibly kubuntu specific)

invoking kazam gives

RROR Kazam - Could not find any typelib for AppIndicator3
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/kazam", line 74, in <module>
    appWindow = KazamApp(datadir, args.debug)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/kazam/app.py", line 238, in __init__
    self.restore_state()
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/kazam/app.py", line 578, in restore_state
    self.volumebutton_audio2.set_value(audio2_vol)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/gi/types.py", line 47, in function
    return info.invoke(*args, **kwargs)
ValueError: %f not in range %f to %f

Hence kazam cannot be used at all.
