Audio system control missing

Post #1 of 4 (1821 views)

I've just upgraded a laptop to Ubuntu 10.04, not without some problems,
and I note that the audio system control (icon - a little speaker) is
now missing from my main panel, nor I can I find it listed in the "Add
to Panel" dialog. Can someone tell me what's the underlying package or
name for this control and how do I restore it to a panel, or get to the
same functionality in some other way?

PulseAudio is responsible for that now.

Are you talking about Kmixer? There is also alsamixer variants too.

You do know you are asking a Ubuntu question on a Gentoo mailing list?
May get better info from a Ubuntu mailing list. I have never even seen
Ubuntu, just heard of it.
