My gstreamer ports are up to date on the two machines where I've
noticed the crashes. The only difference is one uses snd_hda the other
one usb audio.

Changing the volume with the mouse wheel over the icon won't cause the
crashes. Clicking on the icon and moving the slider causes the crashes
every time.
