Sideslip in Cruise - Jets

I've often wondered if there is a way to know if a small amount of sideslip is present in the cruise on jet aircraft.
Given that the ball appears to be the only way to know, and it's not particularly sensitive at very small angles, is there some other way that a crew would know if they had a small amount of sideslip on the airplane?
