But it's so tempting to use the volume slider in Rhythmbox ;) Now that you have convinced me to some degree about that the device volume should be the usual volume to adjust, I guess my biggest problem are the volume sliders in individual applications. I believe they cause problems/inconveniences for many users (I'm going here solely by my own intuition; I don't remember hearing any actual complaints). Do you possibly have the opinion that applications should get rid of the volume sliders, or make them control the device volume? -- Tanu Kaskinen
