OK - that re-factoring (Single/unique application instance control
adapted to Qt5/X11) was listed in the release notes to 0.4.1.

I am not sure that allowing more than one Qjackctl instance is a good
idea. Some audio applications require JACK to be running, and other
start it themselves. This may cause users to get in a real tangle. But I
will leave that to my more experience Ubuntu Studio team members to
confirm.

As a quick and temporary fix, I think the patch to build with QT4 would
be the best. All of the above 3 issues are solved, and the QT4 libraries
are required anyway for other often used audio applications (e.g.
ffado).

I have created a new ticket upstream about the freeze with Dmitry's
suggestions. Hopefully we will get a better fix from upstream for the
next release.

Title:
  Systray option does not work.

Status in Ubuntu Studio:
  New
Status in qjackctl package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in qtbase-opensource-src package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  Setting Qjackctl to "Enable system tray icon" does not display
  Qjackctl's icon and the menu provided by qjackctl from systray is
  blank. Further setting Qjackctl to "Start minimized to system tray"
  makes the application unusable.

  A reboot after Qjackctl to "Enable system tray icon" and  "Start
  minimized to system tray" are set, starting Qjackctl not only doesn't
  show Qjackctl's icon, but the mouse stops working correctly:

  The mouse moves ok, but does not have any hover effect or clicks so
  the menu no longer works and the only way to kill qjackctl is with
  control-alt-F1 (which does still work).

  Qjackctl is the main application used for controlling Jackd or
  jackdbus for those using any of the pro audio software.
