            Bug ID: 93689
           Summary: Third party can change volume
           Product: PulseAudio
           Version: unspecified
          Hardware: x86 (IA32)
                OS: Linux (All)
            Status: NEW
          Severity: critical
          Priority: medium
         Component: daemon
          Assignee: pulseaudio-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org

Other programs can usually (and, as root, always) change pulseaudio's volume.
In some cases, this leads to damaged equipment or hearing loss. Add a
configuration setting that denies volume control to any program other than alsa
or pulseaudio.
