Implemented Better default icon for audio files ?

[Digital Doctor]

I don't see much point in displaying audio files amongst the image files myself.
But if you want to display them together .... how about something a little nicer ? A musical note icon would be more visually explanatory.

The 3 dots is an ellipsis and is a pause in a sentence. Not an intuitive icon for an audio file. IMO.

Yes, the current default doesn't look too good. Adding a default audio icon would be better.
I use a cropped version of this icon in my MP3 for XFMG addon (custom coded for me):

But the same can probably be done with an icon font.

I'm surprised they don't use font-awesome for this, which has an audio icon.

This is discussed already in a bug report. It will be changing.
