Ah, okay! Cool, that worked great. Thanks!

No the indicator icon is not hollowed out. (If I understand what you
mean.) When I restart pulse, the indicator icon only reflects the
indicator slider. If I drag the indicator slider, the icon changes with
it, but the volume is unchanged.

When I run 'killall indicator-sound-service' however, the indicator icon
changes to reflect the volume of the system if that was different than
that of the slider.

By the way, I just found out that pulseaudio is restarted immediately
when I kill it.

$ pkill pulseaudio && pgrep -l pulse
31854 pulseaudio
$ pkill pulseaudio && pgrep -l pulse
31857 pulseaudio
$ pkill pulseaudio && pgrep -l pulse
31871 pulseaudio

So if I run pulseaudio in the terminal after killing it, it tells me the
following.

$ pulseaudio 
E: pid.c: Daemon already running.
E: main.c: pa_pid_file_create() failed.

Maybe that's normal, I'm unsure. I just thought I'd mention it.
