Public bug reported:

The icon theme got a nice update that made them all much lighter (as in
weight), but also resulted in some of them being less readable,
especially in a bright environment (aka. very often when you use a phone
outside).

See the attached image that's a combination of high volume, low volume
and muted. The stroke through the muted speaker is very light, almost a
one-pixel stroke on the Aquaris E4.5 phone, where the icons are
displayed at 26x26 pixels. The volume indication (the two arches on the
right of the speaker) seems unnecessary when muted, too, and just add
confusion.

In the low-volume case the arches seem equally unnecessary, since apart
from spotting the arches you need to compare their colour to see "how
much" of the indication is active vs. not. Could we not lose the
inactive arches altogether?
