Bug Description

When I go to the sound menu and move my mouse over the volume slider, the circular part of the slider disappears (not the orange bar) and becomes a solid orange block. I have attached a video demonstrating this behaviour.

I can also confirm this on my system. There are drawing problems with icons in the menus in general that should either be taken care of by me (when I learn more about theming) or by somebody else through a helpful patch. ;)

By looking at Ambiance (in package light-themes), looks like there are a lot of files related to sliders (in gtk-3.0/assets):

slider_backdrop.png slider_vertical_backdrop.png
slider_insensitive_backdrop.png slider_vertical_insensitive_backdrop.png
slider_insensitive.png slider_vertical_insensitive.png
slider_prelight.png slider_vertical.png
slider_prelight_vertical.png

The most important to me is slider_prelight.png. I think the reason that it's "disappearing" after it gets scrolled over is because it can't find the image for it, so it becomes a box of one of Salience's color.

summary:

- Volume slider in sound menu disappears on mouseover
+ Volume slider in sound menu 'disappears' on mouseover

YES! I got it! This was happening because there was no "GtkScale.slider:hover" property/element/(whatever you call it), so I just added that property (from Ambiance) and then put in the same slider image as the "background-image" and it works! Pushing changes to branch now.
