Usually, I just click on the Lubuntu Menu icon (far left of the
task-bar), and the menu will disappear on the first (or second)
try. <br>
<br>
I just tried it (adding PulseAudio Volume Control to the desktop),
and it worked that way. I'm using 14.04. <br>
<br>
However, in experimenting more with this, I ended up with the
first menu staying there, without ever going away - regardless
what I did. <br>
<br>
In that state I could move the mouse-pointer around and click on
things, but nothing would respond - even the shut-down menu, or
switching to another workspace. <br>
<br>
The CPU indicator in the taskbar showed no above normal activity,
but my system was essentially hung, and the ONLY way I could get
out of it, was by turning off the power. <br>
<br>
This is apparently a very dangerous thing to experiment with... <br>

I regard it as bug, and I vaguely recall seeing a bug report. But
as a workaround, if you back out of the sub-menu then you can Esc
from the main Menu.<br>
<br>
I have not had any problems with the "add to desktop" function, but
I have not used it within the past couple weeks or so.<br>
