It's a known issue to me on a personal level. Been going on so long that... I don't know. It consciously crossed my mind that it is an accessibility issue. All I can do is apologize for not raising it sooner myself because invasive issues here at the house keep throwing everything else on a back burner. *sigh* Mine is Sid Unstable along with: Linux 4.7.0-1-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 4.7.2-1 (2016-08-28) x86_64 GNU/Linux Since I'm on Sid, that played a part in tolerating the annoyance as long as I have, too.... Not even sure what I'm using for audio because it has been so long since I tried to "fix" those kinds of issues on this setup. Well, might have had a lifting of cognitive clouds for a second. Just thought to look under my Applications menu. I see Audio Mixer and PulseAudio Volume Control under "Multimedia". As a last step, I remembered there was a related helpful terminal command line I could run so I opened Audio Mixer then ran "ps -aux" (as regular user). It showed me I have xfce4-mixer running as that generically named "Audio Mixer" under the Applications menu.
