Speed selector button does not show correct playback speed after being added to the tool bar

Exact VLC version: 2.1.0-git Rincewind, built on April 11 2012 (using the vlc-beta package for openSuse).

I am using the Qt4 UI.

Steps to reproduce

  • Open a video or audio file
  • Adjust the playback speed to be slower or faster than 1.00x
  • Open the "Customize UI" dialog
  • Drag the "Speed selector" button to the tool bar

Actual results:

  • The speed selector shows the speed "1.00x" in the preview in the "Customize UI" dialog.
  • After the dialog is closed, the speed selector is added to the tool bar, but shows the incorrect speed of "1.00x".
  • When clicking on the speed selector button, the speed selection slider in the panel that pops up is set to "1x".
  • Only after adjusting the speed using the keyboard or the speed selector, the speed selector button shows the correct speed.

Expected results:

  • The speed selector shows the correct playback speed after adding it to the tool bar.
  • Ideally, the speed selector should also show the actual playback speed in the preview in the "Customize UI" dialog, as other controls like volume and playback position do.
