Title:
  Removing Pulseaudio deletes System Settings icons

Status in alsa-driver package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Ubuntu 14.04 64-bit installed on home theater PC, replacing 12.04.  As
  usual, having problems getting Pulseaudio and XBMC to cooperate on
  passthrough audio over SPDIF.  So I removed Pulseaudio and switched to
  Alsa for sound processing.  This fixed the problem with passthrough
  audio, but unlike previous versions of Ubuntu, this action deleted
  most of the icons from the Systems Settings panel.
