Screenshot of the bug.

SUMMARY

In the bottom pannel, containing the list of opened applications, the icon of the programs like Firefox can have a "sound" icon on top of them.  Sometimes, this icon is poorly scaled and take the whole space of the icon, making it impossible to click on the application behind to open it (or one needs to click really precisely on the last pixels of the icon). 

See attachement for a screenshot.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Maybe optional: Configure the bottom task panel as "Group: do not group", and ensure application won't create a second line if there are too many.
2. Open many applications (like Konsole), including a few instances of Firefox. Maybe start a video inside Firefox.

OBSERVED RESULT

Observe that some instances (in my case only the first opened instance have this issue) have a huge volume icon next to them, making it impossible to click on them. 

EXPECTED RESULT

I expect to see only small volume icons so that I can still click on the application behind.
