The control notifications are for all changes of the control.

If you want to treat hardware-originated changes differently, you have
to send an additional, different notification for the OSD tool.

Usually, such volume change buttons are just treated as input devices,
and software is then expected to change the actual mixer control, but
this doesn't work if the hardware affects the control directly.
