[SOLVED] XFCE4 volume button is gone

Hello.
The volume button/wheel is not in the panel. I uses to have it next to the powermanager icon but it is just gone.

I seached the forums but couldn't find anything to help with my problem.

How do I get the volume wheel in the panel?

I tried that and its not the same. I want to be able to adjust the volume without having to open Mixer. Like a pop-up wheel thing.

Hello - not sure if this will help or not - but right now I have xfce4 running and there is a volume control doohickey there next to the power manager  icon. 

I see that I can start it with:

 gnome-sound-applet 

(I have gnome compatability enabled...)

A longshot, but do you use snd-hda-intel?

I can't find gnome-sound-applet in the repository.

Looks like I got it to work. Really stupid really. Added the mixer in the panel and when I hover the mouse over the icon I can use the mousewheel to adjust the volume. I tried to adjust it by clicking at it. Btw thanks for the help. The Arch Linux community is really helpfull.
