Don't you think that the pulse audio applet (now default in 11.0) is a bit annoying? I mean, with the applet Volume Control you get the volume control slider simply clicking in the icon. With pulse audio, is necessary to open the applet, select volume control, then select the tab output devices and then you are able to modify the volume.
I must admit I'm also using the gnome volume control applet because, well, it does what I want to do... The rationale behind using padevchooser is that it gives the user access to the pulseaudio features. What does it do: + let the user select the default server/sink/source. That's quite cool actually. Except that I'm not really sure people know what this means. + launch the manager. But I don't see how the manager is useful. + launch the volume control. Good. + volume meter. Not really useful, except in some corner cases. + configure local sound server. Good, but a bit techie, I guess. + show notifications for some events. Wouldn't it make sense to patch the volume applet to use the PA volume control instead of gnome-volume-control, add a menu item to configure the local sound server, and maybe add some notifications? The only thing that wouldn't be integrated this way is the selection for default server/sink/source.
