umarzuki  5697  1.4  0.3  26728 15388 ?        S    17:29   0:00 nm-applet
--sm-disable
umarzuki  5876  0.0  0.0   3116   732 pts/0    S+   17:30   0:00 grep
nm-applet

after
umarzuki  3791  0.0  0.0   3116   720 pts/0    R+   17:36   0:00 grep
nm-applet

this time the applet does not reload, perhaps something else triggers it. It
seems that upon authenticated from AP (using Google Chrome), the applet
suddenly gone leaving a gap between battery and sound icon.
