[lucid] if I decreasing output volume slider with 0%, and after this I increasing slider value for example with 50%, mute check box doesn't follow up the state change

[Attila Hammer]

Dear Developers or package maintainers,

I am a visual impaired user, and I using Orca screen reader.
I found an interesting bug with gnome-volume-control application, with very important for accessibility related:
If I launch the gnome-volume-control preference tool, and decreasing output slider value with 0%, mute check box is checked, the sound is muted.
The problem is following:
If I increasing the output slider for example with 50%, mute check box doesn't follow slider value change, mute check box doesn't unchecking automaticaly if the slider value is higher with 0%.

Good vision users this method doesn't resulting problems, because he's or she's easy to click mouse with mute check box to uncheck the check box state. But a visual impaired user only hear the screen reader. If he not known gnome-volume-control window where find the mute check box (because the screen reader speech output doesn't hearing a muted sound card), doesn't possible unchecking this check box with Space key.

Reproducation steps:
1. Launch gnome-volume-control preference tool.
2. Decrease the output slider with 0% for example with keyboard. Press HOME key, and look the mute check box state change. The mute check box is checked.
3. Increase the output slider value with 50% for example with keyboard the PAGEDOWN key, and look the mute check box state. Mute check box state doesn't change. If you press a TAB key and a SPACE key, mute check box is unchecked, and you will be hear sound if you listening for example a music.

I don't no this bug are present or not with Maverick, Natty or Ocelot development release, i using Ubuntu 10.04.3 LTS release.

Your openion have a chance to fix this bug with affected ubuntu releases?
I no, GNOME developers will be not fixing this bug for 2.30.x releases.
