[Bug 10447] New: Halflife 2 does not respect sound volume set in the desktop environment

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10447

Summary: Halflife 2 does not respect sound volume set in the
                    desktop environment
           Product: Wine
           Version: 0.9.49.
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: other
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P2
         Component: wine-directx-dsound
        AssignedTo: [e-mail]
        ReportedBy: [e-mail]

1. boot Halflife 2 episode 2, or any game for that matter (I used the previous)
2. start a new game - make sure your speakers are on and you ear all sounds and
music loud and clear
3. use your quick access keys on your keyboard to change sound volume, or try
to change it using your desktop sound volume applet (if you can alt+tab back
and forth)

What should happen:
 - the sound volume of the game should respect the desktop's configured value
set by the user. Currently, the sound volume is always at (around) maximum.

This is hardly a sound driver bug or desktop environment bug.

Using kmix under Kubuntu Gutsy, volume control works fine (master is set to
'Master' output).

What mixer are using?
