My preferred set-up is to install Ubuntu and then install the LXDE desktop on top of that.

The one thing I sorely miss from the Unity desktop is the System Settings / Sound app.

Keeping in mind that I have a Ubuntu, not Lubuntu install, just running LXDE desktop, is there a way to run that System Settings / Sound app?

I can run gnome-control-center and it opens, but there is no Sound icon in it. I just get a box that looks like this.

Starting with 14.04, Ubuntu introduced the unity-control-center to replace the gnome-control-center.

You can obtain the classic style controls you desire by installing and using unity-control-center instead of gnome-control-center

Execute the following commands to install the unity-control-center:

sudo apt update
sudo apt install unity-control-center

Run the following command to open:

unity-control-center &
