Have you confirmed this works with the likes of PulseAudio, afaik
there was some problem when introducing this because the event may
cause a double change on the volume so the server needs to be able to
handle the volume == local volume, anyway if the headset rounds and
the values doesn't match I guess the server will need to be smart
enough to not trigger another volume change otherwise it could cause a
loop where the server request x but the headset rounds to y over and
over. If the server never reacts if volume != local volume and instead
just updates the local volume, which is probably the behavior we want,
then I should be safe to apply this change.
