Rui has announced a new version of qjackctl on LAA, LAD,LAU mailing
lists. One of the updates/changes is to remove Start minimized to system
tray as an option. There are some other fixes for indicator menu, but
they say they are kde based, so I do not know if they will also work for
xfce. I am no expert on ubuntu/debian policy so I see three ways of
fixing this:

1) ship the QT4 version with the knowledge that next cycle will see a fixed QT5 version.
2) grab the new version.
3) cherry pick these fixes from SF and apply a diff to what Ubuntu currently ships.

1) is the least work I think. 2) may be too late. 3) is more work, but
allows one more app not to use qt4

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.
