'Twas brillig, and Jud Craft at 08/11/09 03:09 did gyre and gimble:
It appears that when I plug in a secondary output device (like my docking station's USB-type sound card) and reroute Pulse to it, I can no longer use the main volume control in GNOME to change the volume of sound output.
The main volume control (e.g. the applet in the system tray or the buttons on your keyboard/laptop) will control whatever device is marked as "default" or "fallback". If you tweak this, it will work with the appropriate device.
