  I have another manifestation of this problem:

1. Notification volume set to 100%
2. Totem plays music, volume set to 60%.
3. Gajim plays sound using canberra-gtk-play. Global volume
jumps to 100% while the sound is playing. So during the event
sound playback, Totem is playing at 100% (not 60% as it set).
4. When canberra-gtk-play finishes, global volume drops to 60%.
