I think it's not a bit problem for playback but could be an issue for
record. While on playback we'll have samples to send with volume with
record is possible that guest wants to reduce the recording volume
but if you are not pushing the volume the record will keep to arrive
at the same volume.
Note that snd_set_command just set a field.
