Description of problem: Running Sound Preferences from the notification area icon, System > Preferences > Sound, or the command line no longer works. In particular, the terminal attempt results in: [gene@Mobile-PC ~]$ gnome-volume-control bash: gnome-volume-control: command not found Looking at the SPEC files for 2.30.0 and 2.31.5 reveals that gnome-volume-control disappeared from the %files section. The gnome-volume-control.desktop file did not disappear.

Which versions of gnome-media and control-center do you have?
Hi Bastien, I have: Installed Packages control-center.x86_64 1:2.31.5-1.fc14 @rawhide gnome-media.x86_64 2.31.5-2.fc14 @rawhide I see that there's a new control-center in koji. Should I try it? Thanks, Gene
I tried the new koji control-center, control-center-2.31.5-2.fc14. The problem still persists. Thanks, Gene
** (gnome-control-center:13172): WARNING **: Could not load icon 'gnome-volume-control': Icon 'gnome-volume-control' not present in theme I have no idea where it gets that from, but there's no mention of that icon name being used anywhere in gnome-media's panel. ** (gnome-control-center:13172): WARNING **: Could not find settings panel "sound" That means that control-center could not parse "/usr/share/applications/gnome-volume-control.desktop". You might want to double-check whether the packages are installed properly. I cannot reproduce the problem with the same package version numbers.
I was able to fix my initial problem by deleting the gnome-volume-control.desktop file in my home directory. However, the volume control applet in the notification area is displaying the "missing icon" icon instead of the volume control icon. From reading the forum thread, this appears to be the case for all rawhide testers. Thanks, Gene
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 14 development cycle. Changing version to '14'. More information and reason for this action is here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping

Bastien, Installing gnome-icon-theme-symbolic gave me the icon I was missing. It's a little hard to see in my theme since the icon is black, but at least it's an icon! :) Does gnome-icon-theme-symbolic need to be a dependency for gnome-media? I've never seen a missing dependency, as far as I can remember. Gene
This doesn't affect the version now in f14, moving back to rawhide.
This doesn't affect F16 and newer running with GNOME Shell, so closing.
