Bug Description

Binary package hint: rhythmbox

I went to adjust the volume and when I clicked on the volume control to open the slider and the volume jumped considerably louder... which really hurt my ears wearing headphones.

After playing with it, the problem is that the thumb control is not positioned based on the current volume, but rather the position of the mouse point when you click on the volume icon (the speaker), so the volume jumps to that level.

Please fix so I don't go deaf :-)

[actually... the better fix would be to put the volume control slider directly into the toolbar rather than require 2 actions to change the volume 1) a click to open the volume control, and 2) a click and drag to change it]
