Unfortunately it's not currently possible. Have a read through this bug report.

will this bug ever be fixed?

If its not currently possible, is there another way for me to do this?
I wanted the network manager applet to be a separate item, so it doesn't depend on status tray.
i want all plugins to mix up nicely
like this:

but if i open for e.g discord it looks like this:

which looks very weird.

Any ideas?

One idea you might consider is to place your sound icon into systray.
You can achieve this using package: pasystray. There should be a few more alternatives but I can't recall them now, I guess you can do a web search for it if it's what you wanted.
