+Summary: alsamixer element and the mixer applet
+
+I'm not quite sure what the difference in the elements is, but when the
+gnome mixer_applet uses ossmixer, the volume control is fine. When using
+alsamixer, the mixer_applet constantly decreases the volume, about one
+notch per second.
+
+It seems like the mixer_applet sets the volume then reads it back, but it
+reads it back as (n-1) to the (n) it set.. so it sets the volume to (n-1)
+and reads it back as (n-2), etc.
+
+The gnome_volume_control application seems to work fine, it's just the
+mixer applet.
+
+How does one debug a panel applet? I don't know how to get access to stdout
+or to run it with different gst-debug flags
