[Bug 22876] Re: There is no way to control which sound device or mixer the keyboard shortcuts use

[Jan Mynarik]

Maybe there is a possible solution, mostly workaround but needs some
code to be written.

Situation: keyboard shortcuts control 'main' mixer, volume applet
controls both 'main' and 'PCM' together; to really change volume while
using headphones, you need to change 'PCM'.

Possible solution: keyboard shortcuts will remain changing only 'main'
but volume applet could see the change of volume (it already does
because it changes itself visually) and update 'PCM' (the other applet-
controlled mixer) accordingly.

What do you think?
