PulseAudio doesn't draw any OSD at all, so this is clearly not a PA bug.

I suspect you're running GNOME right? If so, it's gnome-settings-daemon that
handles the volume keys and it's it that draws the OSD. It does not draw an OSD
when e.g. some other application (i.e. the volume slider in the System Settings
-> Audio area or pavucontrol) changes the volume, and the changes from lirc are
the same.

Personally I think it would be quite nice to draw and OSD for lirc volume
changes, but it's not something we can do in PA directly.

I'll leave this open just now, as I'd like to speak to Bastien about it to see
if there is some way we could trigger it (perhaps issuing a generic DBus signal
when we feel it would be appropriate to show an OSD - that way we could trigger
it from headphone jack inserts too.
