Bug Description

I've got a mouse with a scroll wheel where I can scroll not only vertical but also horzontal with a side click. If I want to scroll from left to right of a webpage, I have to tilt the mouse wheel from its normal position to the right side. That is intuitive.

But if I use this function on the sound applet, this function is not used in the right direction and therefore not very intuitive. The directions should be reversed.

I know, it is not very important and of course, I use the mouse wheel like everyone else to change the volume. Therefore I do not report this as a bug, but as a "does-not-work-like-expected"

Thanks a lot for reporting this. Is there any way you can confirm this is an issue with the sound panel or if it's the drivers for your mouse that are at fault?

It's the one and only point where the mouse wheel side click does not work as expected. I cannot prove it but I'm sure it's not de fault of the mouse driver.

Thanks for your response. We'll investigate the sound menu in that case.
