Description

This is a very annoying bug.

When you enable the systray plugin and exit Audacious when the application is minimized to the systray, next time you'll launch it, it will not show itself on the screen and start minimized to the systray right away.

Would be great to have an option to show the main application window when launching it or remain minimized in the systray for those who love it (e.g. use audacious via audtool).

John, it's true there's a flag, but I often launch Audacious from the Pulse Audio systray applet and it simply has no options to specify for audio applications - it remembers just the process name :-(
