Public bug reported:

As you know Ubuntu Unity's Volume indicator allows you to adjust volume
by scrolling the mouse-wheel (while the mouse-pointer is hovering over
the sound indicator).

I realize that mouse-scroll-wheels have different degrees of precision,
but for me if I move my scroll-wheel one notch it adjusts the volume by
too large a unit of volume.

I would like this method of volume adjustment to be more fine-tune, so
that my mouse-wheels adjustments can cover a more complete spectrum of
volumes. As is, I often find that one scroll-wheel-up produces a volume
that is too loud, while one scroll-wheel-down is too quite. Ultimately,
I'm forced to click the indicator and move the volume-slider to achieve
the desired volume that is in-between the course-grained adjustments
provided by scroll-wheel-volume-adjustments.
