  [SRU] sound settings does nothing - sound menu of the indicator applet

Status in lxpanel source package in Zesty:

Bug description:
  [Impact]
  Without this patch, the "Sound Settings..." button in the volume indicator applet in LXPanel does nothing in a Lubuntu 17.04 install because gnome-control-center is not installed by default. This is a bug and a regression from the past Lubuntu release that we should aim to fix.

  [Test Case]
  On a Lubuntu 17.04 install, left click the volume indicator applet in LXPanel and click "Sound Settings...", it should open pavucontrol. Instead, it just does nothing.

  This patch should make pavucontrol open.

  [Regression Potential]
  There is a very low regression potential. The only reason for this to regress would be if the environment variable (DESKTOP_SESSION), currently set at "Lubuntu" on a default Lubuntu install, changes. This would require an underlying change to another package which should not be changed in a stable release (there's no reason to change it anyways).

  [Original Description]
  - I click on the default "sound" icon (provided by the sound menu of the indicator applet)
  - Menu with volume control, music player etc. opens.
  - I click on "Sound Settings"
  - Nothing happens. (I expect pavucontrol (or whatever) to be started)
