Hello Linux Geeksters.
As you may know, Rhythmbox is the default music player on Ubuntu 13.04 Raring Ringtail, so Rhythmbox is also displayed in the sound music menu.
In the sound menu, you can add one or more music players, depending on your preferences. The player list from the Ubuntu sound menu goes as big as you want it.
To add media players to the Ubuntu sound menu do: gsettings set com.canonical.indicator.sound interested-media-players “[‘media_player‘]”
To remove media players from the Ubuntu sound menu do: gsettings set com.canonical.indicator.sound blacklisted-media-players “[‘media_player‘]”
Replace media_player with the player you want to add.
Examples of how to add music players to Ubuntu sound menu:
To add Rhythmbox (in case you have deleted it do):
$ gsettings set com.canonical.indicator.sound interested-media-players "['rhythmbox']"
