 It's a good idea to remember to keep your laptop sound muted all the time,
 in case you're sitting in a lecture or meeting and inadvertently visit a
 website that starts playing a background sound without any warning.
 However it's annoying to have to unmute whenever you want to use sound and
 to have to remember to re-mute when done.  It would be great if you could
 check a box in the volume control menu that would keep the sound muted by
 default but would pop up a notification dialog asking whether or not you
 want to unmute the sound every time something starts sending sound data to
 pulseaudio.  It seems like a simple enough feature and I think it's one a
 lot of people would use.
