Symlinks confusion
When searching for audio-speakers only the audio-card icon is found. Even though audio-card seems to be a symlink to audio-speakers.

Is there any way to include symlinks info? Maybe when searching for audio the following could be shown:
- audio-speakers
- audio-card (audio-speakers)
- ... other results
Maybe the audio-speakers page could show a list of symlinks that link to it?
I think the idea is that symlinks are an implementation detail, not part of the exposed spec. If audio-speakers should be included, that's a separate issue based on whether or not we expose that as an expected icon name.
What spec are you referring to? I naively assumed all the icons, even symlinks are just available for use.
@peteruithoven we don't have a documented spec, but we consider the icons we make available in elementary OS part of the spec. The question is if audio-speakers is intentionally provided, or if it's symlinked for some specific compatibility reason. I presume it's expected as part of the spec and should consequently be included in LookBook as well.
it looks like audio-card is what is in the fd.o spec. My guess would be that audio-speakers is in there for legacy or compatibility reasons
