Refer to http://pulseaudio.org/wiki/BadDecibel

If (when flat volumes are enabled in PulseAudio) the playback volume of one
stream changes whenever another stream is played, this is most likely caused
be incorrect dB attenuation data exposed by the ALSA kernel driver.

This seem to the software attenuation of the playback volume when PA
software mix two or more playback streams
