Bug Description
I'm not sure if this is fixed by using PulseAudio but I find the volume control in GNOME is way too linear.
Because of this the user has very little control with extreme loud and quiet volumes.
For example, when reducing the volume it will decrease to a certain level then suddenly just go silent.
Much more control would be given with a logarithmic scale.

Well, this is going to be my first 'bug'. I agree with you that the volume control is a bit too linear, so I chose this 'bug'. I am working on it.
