I just made an Ubuntu 12.04 installation on a new computer, and can't figure out how I got Exaile into the sound indicator menu on my old box. Does anyone know how to do this?

Sound indicator menu with Exaile turned off on my old box:

Try this:

  1. Install dconf-tools Install dconf-tools.

  2. Start dconf-editor.

  3. Switch to com → canonical → indicator → sound.

  4. Add , 'Exaile' to "interested-media-players":

    dconf-editor

Done.

Alternatively, you could run:

gsettings set com.canonical.indicator.sound interested-media-players "['rhythmbox', 'Exaile']"

Exaile itself has to cooperate with the sound indicator menu. I found the link I used before. Based on that post:

  • Download the Exaile plugin
  • Extract it to $HOME/.local/share/exaile/plugins/
  • Open Exaile and enable "Sound Menu Indicator" via the Preference menu
