Bug#301843: capplets: gnome-keybinding-properties volume controls should respect mixer_applet2 default channel

Package: capplets
Version: 1:2.8.2-3
Severity: wishlist

I've set up the GNOME mixer applet to use a different channel than 
Master (the PCM channel). When I use the applet, the PCM channel's 
volume is indeed changed. However, the volume controls as set by the 
keybinding property window is hardcoded (so it would seem) to change the 
Master device only. 

I use headphones on my laptop a lot, and since Master really only 
controls the volume for my laptop's internal speakers, I want the 
keyboard buttons to change PCM which affects the internal speakers as 
well as the headphone. However, there doesn't seem to be a way to change 
this.

If possible, gnome-keybinding-properties should IMHO attempt to use the 
channel specified by the preferences of the GNOME mixer applet.
