I can also confirm this issue, and affects ubuntu touch. After the
device is booted, when playing something, it'll always be set to maxium,
even though pactl list sinks shows the right volume

Once I change volume up or down, it gets to the right and expected
volume level (abruptly changing the volume).

In my case:

                device.class = "sound"
                droid.hw_module = "primary"
                device.icon_name = "audio-card"

This is already enough to set the right value:
phablet@ubuntu-phablet:~$ pactl set-sink-volume sink.primary 16%
