Volume Control plugin can't be added to xfce4-panel

With Xfce 4.4, I cannot add the Volume Control plugin to my panel.

I right click the panel, click add new item, and add the Volume Control plugin.

A little black line appears on the panel, then disappears. No plugin.

When I run xfce4-panel through the terminal and then try to add the plugin, this is what I get:

kim@komputer:~$ xfce4-panel
The program 'xfce4-mixer-plugin' received an X Window System error.
This probably reflects a bug in the program.
The error was 'BadAccess (attempt to access private resource denied)'.
  (Details: serial 182 error_code 10 request_code 33 minor_code 0)
  (Note to programmers: normally, X errors are reported asynchronously;
   that is, you will receive the error a while after causing it.
   To debug your program, run it with the --sync command line
   option to change this behavior. You can then get a meaningful
   backtrace from your debugger if you break on the gdk_x_error() function.)
** Message: Volume Control: screen changed: 0

** Message: No valid plug window.

(xfce4-panel:6296): Gtk-CRITICAL **: gtk_socket_get_id: assertion
`GTK_WIDGET_ANCHORED (socket)' failed

** (xfce4-panel:6296): CRITICAL **: An item was unexpectedly removed: "Volume
Control".

Can anyone help me?

Yeah, all other audio works, even opening xfce4-mixer works...just not the plugin.
