This is happening in stable released 14.10. It appears to happen only when running skype (not tested with other applications that consume microphone input).
1. Open Ubuntu Control Center → Sound → Input
2. Do a Skype call (eg. Echo call)
3. Adjust the microphone volume in Ubuntu Software Center

Title:
  Moving the microphone volume slider bounces back

Status in indicator-sound package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  When moving the microphone slider in the Unity sound menu or in Ubuntu
  Contorl Center / Sound, it starts moving back to the left and
  decreases volume again to the original position. As a consequence, it
  is hard to due phone/skype/hangout calls because the counterpart
  doesn't understand the recorded sound.

  This could be a UI issue related to high-dpi (scaling-factor=2),
  similar to bug #1299054.
