: Are you seeing this with all applications? I see it with gkrellm's
: volume control, but the Gnome volume control works just fine as does
: the CLI mixer(1) command.

I've seen it with gkrellm, aumix, opmixer, ermixer, and gmixer. 
Actually, to be fair, gmixer didn't do anything -- all the others will
mute my audio as soon as the PCM volume hits 0.  And that's all they do.

: I have sent a note to the maintainer of the volume plug-in, but have
: not heard anything to this point. I will probably do a PR on it soon
: and I really love the gkrellm volume control.

Ditto.
