Show virtual audio stream (playback or recording) on the plasma widget. The widget only show real audio streams (speakers, headphones, etc).

Hi - just to confirm, have you opened the widget, clicked the hamburger menu, and selected the checkbox for "Show virtual devices"?

When using the system tray's audio volume, it does show the hamburger menu, but when adding it onto the desktop or on the panel manually, it does not show the hamburger menu.

Ah, thanks for clarifying - in those cases, the "Show virtual devices" checkbox should be available by right-clicking on the widget (when it's on the desktop, that right-click needs to be in Edit Mode). Could you please confirm that the setting is showing up via those methods on your device?

Ah, now I see it; I never noticed it. If I were to suggest something, it would probably make sense to add the hamburger menu on the top right (or bottom since there's barely any space).

That sounds logical to me - retitling accordingly, thanks!
