Hi Dominik,
thanks for your report.

For me it works. Could it be that you had set Ekiga to start hidden, 
i.e. iconified in one of your previous installations?

Yes, that needs to be improved. I do not see the arrows but immediately 
get a rather slowly scrolling popup menu. It seems to be a Windows 
specific shortcoming of GTK+. Google found other people complaining 
about it.
I would recommend attached patch which prevents Win32 Ekiga from calling 
the gtk_status_icon_position_menu function. So the menu will appear 
immediately right top of the mouse cursor. For Win32 this is definitely 
preferable.

I just uploaded new "stable" ..3.2.pre6 files to 
http://wwwuser.gwdg.de/~mrickma/ekiga for everybody to test. They are 
pretty up to date and contain my latest fixes, also the one which was 
contained in the previous ...exe.isitbetter to fix remnants of the 
greyed audio button bugs.
