Package: alsa-base Version: 1.0.23+dfsg-2 Severity: important Clicking on volume control shows this message: The volume control did not find any elements and/or devices to control. This means either that you don't have the right GStreamer plugins installed, or that you don't have a sound card configured. You can remove the volume control from the panel by right-clicking the speaker icon on the panel and selecting "Remove From Panel" from the menu.
