Comment (by humdinger):

However, I would still prefer a spinner instead of a slider. A user
 could simply type the exact size of the volume desired.

 Do many people need to set a specific dB value? It all depends on the
 played source anyway, so I'd assume most did it like me and just slide
 left/right until the played back media has the desired volume. If the
 cursor key feature described in this ticket is added, people that really
 need a specific dB number can fine-tune with that.

 I often use the mouse wheel to slide the volume. That has only a
 resolution of 3 dB for me, which can be a bit much. But that's for a
 separate ticket...
