Yes

System Info

Void 5.18.9-1 X86_64-libc

Package(s) Affected

volumeicon-0.5.1_4

Does a report exist for this bug with the project's home (upstream) and/or another distro?

No response

Expected behaviour

Display the volume icon in tint2 launcher

Actual behaviour

No volumeicon icon is displayed, instead a blank placeholder exists. However using the scroller on the blank placeholder works, e.g. volume is adjusted and the speaker icon and progress bar shows. Also right click on same opens the volumeicon menu. Fault begun after a recent update by -Syu.

Steps to reproduce

If using openbox and tint2 as your window manager, you may have the same problem.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the issue with volumeicon-0.5.1_4 under Openbox and tint2, then inspect the Void package and the volumeicon/tint2 integration involved. Confirm whether the package or an update causes the blank launcher placeholder; done means the volume icon is displayed while scrolling, adjusting volume, and opening the context menu still work.
