Bug Description

Binary package hint: indicator-sound

The indicator volume control in lucid includes the feature allowing one to change the volume by scrolling the mousewheel over the indicator icon. This is quite convenient, eliminating a superfluous mouse click to open the menu. However, this seems to be broken in maverick at the moment.

Expected: scrolling the mousewheel while hovering over the volume indicator applet changes the volume
Actual: scrolling the mouse wheel doesn't do anything. Clicking on the applet, and scrolling over the _slider_ works fine (as it should).

This worked with both the old style notification-area applet as well as lucid's indicator applet.
