The settings menu for the status-icon plugin does not pop up if its clicked in the menu. The status icon in the tray is present though and works properly. But audacious cannot be minimzed to the tray.

When starting Audacious via the command line this message is spit out:

WARNING plugin-init.cc:147 [start_multi]: Status-Icon failed to start.

Are you using the Qt interface? The status icon only works with the GTK and Winamp interfaces.

Yes, the Qt interface. And the status icon works fine.

I think you may not be looking at the status icon but only at the Audacious icon in KDE's task switcher. Please attach a screenshot so we can try to clear up the confusion. The status icon will not load at all if you are using the Qt interface (it explicitly checks this on startup).

See screenshot.

No status icon there. No taskbar, even??

I have the autohide function on for the taskbar thats why. I thought the popup would be sufficient (belongs to the status icon as I understand it). Well, here is another with the taskbar shown.

The popup in your screenshot is part of KDE and communicates with Audacious through the MPRIS 2 interface. It has nothing to do with the status icon. This is what the status icon looks like (in XFCE, with the GTK2 interface):
