Title:
  gnome-volume-control : master volume slider behavior is
  confusing/unclear

Status in “gnome-media” package in Ubuntu:
  Expired

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: gnome-media

  Hi there,

  I have switched from 9.04 to 10.10 and am trying to get used to the
  new way of adjusting sound volume, since the old mixer panel has
  disappeared, now replaced the full blown sound preferences GUI.  I am
  having problem with the mast control at the top of the GUI. It's not
  quite clear how it works. When I set the volume to the max using the
  panel applet, the slider in the preferences GUI only goes maybe two
  thirds to the right (the non-functioning % indicator doesn't help
  figure things out...). It seems (I assume ?) this slider can somehow
  how amplify and go above 100%, but it would save headaches and
  confusion if this was made visually obvious from the start.
