Excellent catch.  In this first cut of the HUD, it is only showing
normal menu items/indicators.  The Sound->Previous/Play/Next buttons
are a special indicator/dbusmenu widget and yes, they should probably
be appearing in the HUD representation too.

Please could you file this in a bug on Launchpad:

Yes: all the indicator icons have an underlying textual representation.
This string gets translated, and is what the HUD display.

Once again, thanks for spotting this.  It's a bug rather than a
design issue, so it would be better to move this to bugtracker now
(so that it doesn't get lost).
