Is it a way to put DeadBeef to sound menu instead of Rhythmbox?
Best Answer
how to
First install deadbeef - you should check the authors launchpad website for precompiled versions of deadbeef. At the time of writing this, no 12.10 or later version was available:
add deadbeef to sound indicator
Using
dconf-editor
you can add deadbeef to the sound indicator:add volume control options
To add the volume controls you need to compile from the MPRIS plugin from source.
important note - this was highly unstable for me on 64bit ubuntu causing deadbeef to continually crash and I dont recommend you do so.
sudo apt-get install deadbeef-plugins-dev git
Next download the mpris plugin source from github
If you want to remove Rhythmbox from the sound indicator then the linked Q&A will help
