my ubuntu has upgraded from 16.04 to 17.04. I didn't had pulse-equalizer before. I asked a question and I found a solution to installing the program from this link. All installed correctly and found it on synaptic package manager and working properly, I mean no error but I couldn't find any program named 'Pulse Equalizer' from my dash. I'm pretty novice on ubuntu. Help me to get out guys! :|

pulseaudio-equalizer:

The program is called pulseaudio-equalizer. To make sure you really installed it, you can type the command

apt-cache policy pulseaudio-equalizer

On my 14.04 system this returns

pulseaudio-equalizer:
  Installed: 2.7.0.2-4~webupd8~1
  Candidate: 2.7.0.2-4~webupd8~1
  Version table:
 *** 2.7.0.2-4~webupd8~1 0
        500 http://ppa.launchpad.net/nilarimogard/webupd8/ubuntu/ trusty/main amd64 Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

Note that I installed it from a ppa.

Once installed, it shows up in the dash as expected.

I suspect you did not install it successfully.

On my 17.10 system the equalizer program is also not showing up in the dash. To open the equalizer i used these steps.

First load the modules:

pactl load-module module-equalizer-sink
pactl load-module module-dbus-protocol

And then open the equalizer:
