On the TASKBAR tab click customize and you should from there be able to chose which icons remain hidden.
however it is dynamic. If you refrain from clicking on the icon for the next few days it will eventually hide it again.
ahh yeah, i knew it was easy, just forgot
The sound icon was set to "Hide when inactive" but obviously it hadnt dissapeared yet so i set it to "always hide", now its still there but i have to click the arrow and expand to see it, which is exactly what i wanted, cheers guys
