Quite often the volume control on the notification area dies while I am working on it (changing the volume, usually, but sometimes it dies without me ever touching it). Because of that, I also run a volume widget on the panel. When the volume control in the notification area dies, I switch to using the widget and it dies too. The panel shows me a dialog telling me that a widget died, I tell it to restart and the restarted one works without dying any more (until the next time). Thsi si not a new bug. It has always happened to me since using Mate. This is the first time that I finally seem to understand how and why volume control disappears. I suspect this is the root of the myriad unanswered questions on the web abut disappearing volume control. This is what I get from syslog: Aug 3 09:00:39 pot mate-volume-con[1386859]: Calling gtk_widget_realize() on a widget that isn't inside a toplevel window is not going to work very well. Widgets must be inside a toplevel container before realizing them.
