Comment 11 for bug 1254881

I was suffering from multiple processes of both xfce4-power-manager and xfce4-volumed as well. Thanks Darko for the workaround in the bug description. However, that wasn't enough to make my volume controls work reliably. Note that Bug #1314782 is very related. The workaround posted there (add --no-daemon to the xfce4-volumed processe as well) worked for me. See https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xfce4-volumed/+bug/1314782/comments/7.
