In pavucontrol the information about the changed volume is only passed to the pa in certain intervals, not really every time the user changes it. OTOH the panel applet sends an event to the pa daemon every single time the volume slider is changed even by a single pixel. Which basically means that pa is bombarded with volume change request. This becomes especially a problem if those events need to be sent over the network. I could add a workaround for this into gst-pulse, but I believe the proper place to fix this is the volume applet. Have you enable real-time scheduling for PA? You might be able to fix this issue by doing this, I you haven't already done so.
