Scrolling the mousewheel over the sound-indicator doesn't adjust the volume

[antoine]

I am running Xubuntu 11.10 and when I scroll the mousewheel over the sound-indicator, it doesn't adjust the volume

I am not the only one in this situation

it seems to only appear on xubuntu (xfce desktop)

Xfce4-indicator-plugin is missing a callback apparently (it was lost between 0.2.1 and 0.3.0). This is a regression from natty.

The following patch should fix it, but I haven't really tested it carefully (nor sent it upstream).

(JFTR, I am an ubuntu developer, I can upload myself, I don't need another stupid qa bot by Brian to subscribe the review team for me.)

Patch committed upstream, will be part of xfce4-indicator-plugin 0.4.0 that should be released today (then, 0.4.0 will go into precise, and 0.3.1 + this patch to oneiric-updates).
