Public bug reported:

By design the indicator-sound is only storing/restoring the master
volume, not handing sink-port specifics.

Meanwhile we have pulse also storing/restoring the per sink-port values
once the daemon is started, but it gets reset again once indicator-sound
is started with the system-wide value stored by the indicator.

This is a problem with ubuntu touch specifically, because of the following use case scenario:
- Set speaker volume to 90 % using the indicator
- Connect wired headset, set volume to 10%
- Disconnect wired headset, volume will change to 90% automatically (because of pulse)
- Reboot with the wired headset connected

After boot the volume will be 90% instead of 10%.
