not visible in tray when run as non root on ubuntu budgie 18.04 #134

I successfully paired my device using indicator-kdeconnect and I can get ping notifications (as well as send them after running kcmshell5 kcm_kdeconnect) but when running kdeconnect-indicator nothing shows up in notification icons area. The indicator shows only when run using sudo, but obviously I don't want to do that. Console output:

$ kdeconnect-indicator 
Gtk-Message: 09:31:06.232: Failed to load module "gail"
Gtk-Message: 09:31:06.240: Failed to load module "canberra-gtk-module"

** (kdeconnect-indicator:9480): WARNING **: 09:31:06.240: (../atk-adaptor/bridge.c:993):atk_bridge_adaptor_init: runtime check failed: (root)

edit: I installed libgail-common and libcanberra-gtk-module and now still nothing shows up in tray but there are no errors in terminal output - it's empty:

$ kdeconnect-indicator

I'm not familiarised with Budgie, but tr to install "libatk-adaptor" too

I have the same issue on a similar system. First launch of the app and pairing were successful, but now it does not launch. "libatk-adaptor" is installed in my system.

Can confirm, "libatk-adaptor" installed.

cc @fossfreedom (I know you'll probably go with building something on top of mConnect as mentioned in https://github.com/solus-project/budgie-desktop/issues/1439 but I getting this indicator working and playing with it may be useful. Most of the features seem to be working right now, it just doesn't show up in tray)

@michallepicki Ensure you have the appindicator applet added to your panel through budgie-settings.

Ubuntu Budgie and Solus-Project are both trying to encourage someone to step forward to create a budgie-applet for the community. Currently trying to mentor two potential indie-devs to help here. Cross-fingers.

@fossfreedom that was it, thank you!

I know this project is dead, but I'm facing the same issue. I've installed libatk-adaptor, libgail-common and libcanberra-gtk-module, I have an AppIndicator applet in my panel. Compiled this from source following instructions from the INSTALL file. Nothing showing up even as sudo. Ubuntu 20.04.1 LTS.
