I make regular use of this and have not had any issue with the systray tool
showing up in my panel. I'm running on 11.1-Stable with all ports up to
date as of this morning.

I have "HP System Tray Service" with the command defined as "hp-systray
-x". Mine is built from ports with all options selected except for qt4.
(qt4/qt5 are radio buttons.)
