The recent updates removed volume control applet from a panel. It
is still there on an "Add to panel" list but marked as "deprecated"
and when I tried, out of curiosity, to add that back to a panel then
nothing happened. Why it is still on the list is anybodys guess.
It does not look like that any other "mixer type" application showed
up on menus as a replacement. In any case the current version of
gnome-volume-control appears to be bowdlerized now to such extent
that it is not likely to be of any use outside of the most trivial
situations; in other words not then when it is really needed.
Is alsamixer from a terminal window the only thing left? I do not
mind, as long as somebody will not try to steal that, but I know
users with whom this will not sit very well.
