Not sure what widgets one could use. I'm in Plasma and media controls here are pretty simple from the systray.

#

But usually, you may control the playback within an applet or the volume options in the panel afaik.

#

#

Don't think you have to install it, depends on your desktop environment. Which one do you use? Cinnamon?
