well for sure you need have an icon to click on - if it is named tray icon in 
the GNOME word i don't know. But I also knowfrom upstrema bugtracker that 
gnome people with qt < 5.4 still complaining about this issue. 

Well thats why i recommend to built with qt4 till we have qt 5.4.2 in 
backports. That is actually the reason, why the versioninstable is actually 
built with qt4. The change is not really big.
