Perhaps the front panel's ability to capture X clients may be of help here (provided there is a standalone systray applet for pulseaudio). You can put any X window into the front panel by adding a "client" control type to your dtwm.fp. The CDE administrator's guide describes it in detail, but basically it's:

CONTROL <name>
{
 TYPE client
 CONTAINER_NAME <parent BOX>
 CONTAINER_TYPE BOX
 CLIENT_NAME <class name (WM_CLASS) of the client (must be launched)>
 CLIENT_GEOMETRY <WxH>
}

Either I have hit a bug or I am doing something wrong:
cp /usr/dt/appconfig/types/el_GR.UTF-8/dtwm.fp ~/.dt/types/

Modify ~/.dt/types/dtwm.fp
CONTROL Blank
{
  TYPE                  blank
  CONTAINER_NAME        Switch
  CONTAINER_TYPE        SWITCH
  POSITION_HINTS        3
  ICON                  FpblnkS
  HELP_TOPIC            FPOnItemSwitch
  HELP_VOLUME           FPanel
}

TO

CONTROL VolCtrl
{
  TYPE                  client
  CONTAINER_NAME        Switch
  CONTAINER_TYPE        SWITCH
  POSITION_HINTS        3
  CLIENT_NAME mate-volume-control-applet
  CLIENT_GEOMETRY 22x22
}

(The CONTAINER_TYPE BOX  you wrote above can not be correct)

Now if I start the Work Space Manager the Switch turns to what you see in the screenshot.

I see at least one bug here: the panel thinks that there are 3 rows instead of 2 and the position
of the buttons lock, exit and busy are erratically positioned.

Even so, if I now start mate-volume-control-applet nothing happens
(it was expected that the volume applet will appear in the reserved position on Switch).

Any comments please?

Antonis.
