Public bug reported:

The difference between mute and the next step up is huge. Why is there
no way to get really quiet audio?

Steps to reproduce:
* Turn sound applet volume down to mute (the lowest setting).
* Play some music.
* Put your speakers up to a high volume, or plug in head phones.
* Press the (+) button to raise the volume by one step.

Expected result: quiet music.
Actual result: loud music.


This basically makes software volume control useless. When I want to turn 
volume down enough to take a phone call or talk to a friend, I need to reach 
back and adjust my speaker, which escapes the point.

Proposed solution: either remove the faulty volume control applet, or
fix it so that the lowest volume settings are actually quiet.
