Bug Description

DockbarX has a feature where it shows media controls in the launcher's popup.

Noise used to be detected correctly, but a recent update broke this behavior. However, it still shows in the Sound Menu.

(I've checked and the options in DockbarX are set correctly)

I installed Noise to try it myself but I can't get it to show in either DockbarX or Sound Menu (from unity 2d panel, ubuntu 11.10). Checking with d-feet I see that Noise has not registered an org.mpris.MediaPlayer2 dbus adress.

This is using noice 1.0 (installed from ppa). Is that the version you use as well? Can you double check that it shows up in Sound menu?

I use Noise 1.0 (which actually is 0.4-0~r700+pkg25~precise1, from elementary OS Daily PPA) and DockbarX 0.48-1~webupd8~oneiric (from WebUpd8's PPA).

I've double checked both the option in DockbarX and the SoundMenu. It shows in the latter but not in the former.

I'll install other media players to see how they are affected.

Arturo, thanks for your report!

This should be fixed in the latest revision (703).

By the way, we need someone to make an icon for Audience (lp:audience). We know you made an awesome icon for Google Music Frame and would like to get an icon from you :) Please contact me if you're interested.
