[xubuntu-users] How to restore the mixer?

[Horacio Sanson]

All my new xubuntu installations (12.04) had a nice muxer in the
panel. This muxer  has a simple volume control and below shows the
gmusicbrowser player. When playing music with gmusicbrowser it also
shows the cover art and the play/pause/next media controls (see
attached screenshot).

Unfortunately after a few updates (apt-get upgrade) for some reason
this muxer applet always dissapears and there is no way, that I can
see, to get it back.

Can anyone teach me how to restore it without reinstalling the whole system?

As a bonus can someone tell me also how to restore the mail applet
next to the muxer one? (see screenshot). This mail icon allows me to
manage my online status in pidgin and access the pidgin application.


regards
Horacio
