** Description changed:

- Binary package hint: indicator-sound
+ indicator-sound 0.6.6.1-0ubuntu3, Ubuntu 11.04
+ indicator-sound 12.10.2+13.10.20131011-0ubuntu1, Ubuntu 13.10
  
  In maverick's sound menu, it was possible to activate the banshee or
  rhythmbox play/pause, back, and forward controls by pressing the mouse
  on the indicator applet sound icon, dragging to the chosen control with
  the mouse button held down, and releasing the mouse button. It looks
  like the sound menu spec at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/SoundMenu is
  ambiguous as to whether this should activate the controls, but all other
  menu items in the indicator applet can be activated in this way (as an
  example, the mute option in the sound menu). The fact that this no
  longer works for the playback control buttons seems like a bug.
  
  To be clear, click/release on the sound menu icon followed by
  click/release on the playback buttons works perfectly well. The
  inconsistency is in the playback buttons being more picky than other
  menu items, in that they can't be triggered by just a mouse release.
