New issue 15725 by tevzo42: audio.volume sets system 'Wave' volume
http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=15725

Chrome Version       : 3.0.190.4 (Windows XP)
URLs (if applicable) : http://tcevans.org/
Other browsers tested: Firefox 3.5
   Add OK or FAIL after other browsers where you have tested this issue:
      Safari 4: OK
   Firefox 3.x: OK
          IE 7: <audio> not supported
          IE 8: <audio> not supported

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Open a system application that plays sound. (anything- music, video- all
succumb to it.)
2. Start playing the system application so you have some sound going.
3. Move the volume box away from the player to reduce the volume.
4. The volume in the system application has it's volume reduced.

What is the expected result?
The system app's volume does not change and remains at the level that the
app assigned to it.

What happens instead?
The system's volume is set via the browser.

Please provide any additional information below. Attach a screenshot if
possible.
I was playing a video when I started playing with the volume on the
javascript widgets I was working on when I noticed that the volume in the
widget was affecting the system volume. What I expected was that each
<audio> element would have a volume associated with it, but it seems that's
not the case, and system-wide settings are changed. Also, when exiting the
page, the volume is not restored to it's normal volume. In Windows, the
system volume attribute changed is the 'Wave' volume. If you take a peek at
it after you fiddle with it a little, you can see the changes (it doesn't
upload while the chrome is up for the volume manager).
