2. Pull down indicator-sound and verify that you see this album art next to the podcast title, artist name and album title.

NOTE: Currently network streams such as Pandora using Panpipe do not display album art nor do they display anything for song title, album title or artist name. This is a separate bug that will be fixed at another time. We are also checking with the design team to see if we should display the file URI if there is no other metadata. There is also another bug in ubuntu-settings-components where a fallback image cannot be used otherwise no other album art will take effect: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubuntu-settings-components/+bug/1593356
