Description

I'm on Ubuntu 14.04 64 bit and I think it's ludicrous to have to type in a command to launch the Mumble overlay.

Research direction
Investigate how the Mumble overlay is currently launched on Linux. The issue suggests it requires a manual command; look into the overlay initialization code (likely in the overlay/ directory) and see if there's a way to auto launch when a game starts. Check the issue comments for any discussion on implementation details. The repository uses C++ with Qt, so familiarity with Qt event handling may be needed.
