### Bug description
When more than one synchronization is configured and one is paused, the desktop icon shows the gray "paused" symbol, even though the other sync is running. This is less informative than the previous behaviour where a paused synch did not affect the desktop icon.
We use a remote medium for occasional backup via NC. To prevent an error when the medium is removed, the associated sync is paused. With the current behaviour, we are not informed about problems via the menubar icon
### Steps to reproduce
Modifications in brackets are optional:
1. configure synchronization A (to local disk)
2. configure synchronization B (to removable medium)
3. perform synchronization
4. pause the B sync (and eject the medium)
5. the sync icon turns gray, sync problems with the A sync do not cause the icon to turn red
### Expected behavior
Status of the active A synch should be reflected by desktop icon

Contributor guide
Research direction
No source files or tests are named. Reproduce the issue on macOS with two configured syncs, one paused and one active, then trace how the menubar icon aggregates synchronization states; done means the active sync's status and errors determine the icon even when another sync is paused.
