Bug Description
Binary package hint: pulseaudio
The pulseaudio volume control applet does not change the volume level at all (it remains loud) until the slider is around 15%. Then it will lower the sound in the four steps it takes to hit 0%, then it mutes just fine. It seems that the slider "Master Front" hits zero at around 15%, then the "Front" slider actually controls the volume. I can obtain more information, please tell me what you need.
I expected the volume to become progressively quieter as the bar goes down, however it does not change until 15% as was said.
