Bug Description

The only way to learn ALSA master volume in Ubuntu 10.04 is the terminal, with "alsamixer", after the tooltip for the volume icon in the Indicator applet is gone in 10.04. I find this very unuseful. The solution might be to re-enable the tooltips for the Indicator applet.

I guess that all the indicator menus currently don't support having tooltips. If it's the case, this bug should probably be reassigned to indicator-application.

Indicators won't have tooltips. That is a design decision. But the sound applet is getting a major face-lift for the next release, so it might contain that information - the percentage of the current master volume level, if I understood well.

Yes, thanks, I know now that the tooltips won't come back, it's a pity, many people are complaining about that. I'm curious, how it will look in Maverick...
