(Solved) Double volume icon in task bar in OpenBox Bonsai

[ka9yhd]

Some time back I had seen where someone had an issue with having two volume icons in the task bar, but for the life of me I can not find that post on how to fix it.  I have searched the forums and have come up with nothing.

This started last week after doing some updates.  Now I have two volume icons in the task bar.

Running Openbox Bonsai 2011.08

Sounds like you have two (or more) audio mixers running (or, multiple instances of the same)...

What are the results of the following command:

Code:

ps aux | grep -i mix

I can not find that post on how to fix it.

I think the easiest way to fix it was go to
/home/user/.config/openbox/autostart.sh
and comment out the volumeicon command with
a good old #.   That's how I fixed mine.

Have a good one.

That worked.......... Thanks

Sorry that didn't result in anything useful, for you

Did you try Ferdes Fides' suggestion?

If "volumeicon" is the name of the executable, you could substitute "icon" for "mix" in the command I posted, and see if that returns anything...

...

Never mind.  Too slow to post, I see...

Hi,

This happened after the update of Openbox, (thanks a lot to Galen who did the new package !)

Well, the new Openbox already took care of starting volumeicon, so it is not necessary to keep the line in the autostart.sh file anymore !

Now she tells us........   

Ok I will mark this "solved".  Thank you to all who responded.

Now I tell YOU !

Ferdes Fides already knew because we already noticed before, and I did repeat it many times when the new Openbox came out.

THANK YOU 

I do remember seeing a discussion about the double volume icon, but I could not find that discussion....... So I asked.

I had the same problem after updating synaptic, double sound icon. The # workaround worked for me too
Thank You
