Bug Description
Linux Mint 16 Cinnamon 64-bit
I've had this happen three or four times: I open the music applet from the panel and I'm sliding the volume control, and Cinnamon crashes. It seems to happen when I try to slide the volume down from 50% below past say 33% or so. It's gotten so I don't change the volume anymore because I have too much work to do to lose my desktop.
Sometimes Cinnamon will restart with no problems, but on Tuesday when this happened my entire desktop was locked and I had to power-cycle my system (couldn't even switch to a different virtual console).
FWIW, I use either an HDMI output or an internal analog output (headphones). The last time this happened I was using my headphones for output.

I'm having the exact same issue here. Linux Mint 16 Cinnamon 64-bit also. It's only been an issue since the upgrade from Mint 15. Cinnamon crashes when you adjust the volume level via the applet. Just using the in-build analog audio.
