Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: indicator-sound

When using the applet to change the volume of the system, i've noticed
that first my front speakers reduce sound and then the surround ones. I
have checked with alsamixer open while using the applet and it does
change the volume of the front speakers first, then the surround, center
and lfe speakers.

Also, it seems to slighltly change the volume of the PCM channel up and
down (99-100-98-100-98... etc), and when the slider is up to 100% high
frequencies cause a terrible tinny noise (think of a highly compressed
mp3 file), which can be fixed by turning the PCM channel manually with
alsamixer down to 98-96. Of course this happens again if changing the
volume with the applet.

I have had this issue already in 9.10 and i waited 10.04 to see if this
issue would disappeared, or if it was somehow caused by any
misconfiguration on my side. Made a clean installation (even moved away
all my config files and it persists).

Using indicator-sound to change volume changes volume non-uniformly across 
channels and causes "tinny" sound
