Comment 5 for bug 394217

I have to admit I haven't figured out what the most appropriate way of
dealing with this is, but from a usability point of view it seems natural
that any change of the volume that is not caused by the volume slider should
be presented in a notification bubble. As far as I am concerned, if there's
any way to do this from a script, it's just fine with me - I don't _have to_
use amixer - any scripted way to change the volume and present a
notification bubble is fine by me.

DRM 'manages access' in the same way that jail 'manages freedom'.
