That is a plain Plasma ToolButton, not a simple icon, which does the same as 
the button you can find in the "old" KMix interface does. If you click it, the 
corresponding channel will be muted. If it's already muted, it will be un-muted 
:)
imho the label gives a more concise/precise info about the actual volume level, 
which the slider cannot offer because of its nature.
