Version: 3.7 (using KDE 4.6.0) OS: Linux I would like to suggest some minor enhancements, which, i suppose, are very easy to do. Reproducible: Always

Created attachment 56937 [details] The window which appears when right clicking on volume icon Here is an option called "Restore". Looks like "restore" has the same functionality as button "Mixer" on previous window. If it is the same, i think it's better to call "Open mixer", to be more clear what the action does. "Restore" is unclear - what to restore? why restore and not open? If the functionality is not the same - rename it to reflect more clear the difference.
Created attachment 56938 [details] the mixer window Suggestions: 1. Start the window title with "Mixer" - to create for user the right association what is this window. 2. Item "Quit" in file menu closes the plasmoid (the cion form systray disappears) - unexpected result. Either rename it to "Close plasma widget" (or similar). Or, my suggestion, remove it. Better to close plasmoid from context menu, when right-clicking volume icon.

It is a KStatusNotifierIcon provided by the kmix application. Though I agree, it is a bit confusing. I don't think much can be done about that, unless someone else comes up with a better idea. Replacing KMix with a volume plasmoid is certainly an option.
Thanks for your suggestion. But please note that "Restore" is the common term in KDE in the tray menu. You see it in various applications, like Amarok and KMail. "Quit" in a main window is quit, and that commonly removes the associated tray icon in various applications, in KDE, Gnome and even others. As both features constitute standard behavior, I will not change them.
