[Bug 1359249] Re: Launching PAVUControl works from Xubuntu, but not from Xfce

 

same as #1443229.

I investigate the source code of indicator-sound, and find that in
src/service.vala:

var env = Environment.get_variable ("DESKTOP_SESSION");
string cmd;
if (env == "xubuntu" || env == "ubuntustudio")
 cmd = "pavucontrol";
else

I think you would support more desktop environment such as XFCE by
adding " || env == "xfce""

Title:
  Launching PAVUControl works from Xubuntu, but not from Xfce

Status in indicator-sound package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  In Xubuntu 14.04 when clicking the sound indicator and choosing "Sound
  Settings" Pavucontrol is launched, but it does not get launched in the
  same scenario when the session "Xfce" is launched instead, with the
  same settings. In fact I installed the xfce4 package on top of
  Xubuntu's and launched it. Both xsession files list the same thing to
  start it, so is indicator only choosing to work on whitelisted
  sessions?
