/** \page volume Volume Control
 *
 * \section overv_sec Overview
 *
 * Sinks, sources, sink inputs and samples can all have their own volumes.
 * To deal with these, The PulseAudio libray contains a number of functions
 * that ease handling.
 *
 * The basic volume type in PulseAudio is the \ref pa_volume_t type. Most of
 * the time, applications will use the aggregated pa_cvolume structure that
 * can store the volume of all channels at once.
 *
 * Volumes commonly span between muted (0%), and normal (100%). It is possible
 * to set volumes to higher than 100%, but clipping might occur.
 *
 * \section calc_sec Calculations
 *
 * The volumes in PulseAudio are logarithmic in nature and applications
 * shouldn't perform calculations with them directly. Instead, they should
 * be converted to and from either dB or a linear scale:
 *
 * \li dB - pa_sw_volume_from_dB() / pa_sw_volume_to_dB()
 * \li Linear - pa_sw_volume_from_linear() / pa_sw_volume_to_linear()
 *
 * For simple multiplication, pa_sw_volume_multiply() and
 * pa_sw_cvolume_multiply() can be used.
 *
 * Calculations can only be reliably performed on software volumes
 * as it is commonly unknown what scale hardware volumes relate to.
 *
 * The functions described above are only valid when used with
 * software volumes. Hence it is usually a better idea to treat all
 * volume values as opaque with a range from PA_VOLUME_MUTED (0%) to
 * PA_VOLUME_NORM (100%) and to refrain from any calculations with
 * them.
 *
 * \section conv_sec Convenience Functions
 *
 * To handle the pa_cvolume structure, the PulseAudio library provides a
 * number of convenienc functions:
 *
 * \li pa_cvolume_valid() - Tests if a pa_cvolume structure is valid.
 * \li pa_cvolume_equal() - Tests if two pa_cvolume structures are identical.
 * \li pa_cvolume_channels_equal_to() - Tests if all channels of a pa_cvolume
 *                             structure have a given volume.
 * \li pa_cvolume_is_muted() - Tests if all channels of a pa_cvolume
 *                             structure are muted.
 * \li pa_cvolume_is_norm() - Tests if all channels of a pa_cvolume structure
 *                            are at a normal volume.
 * \li pa_cvolume_set() - Set all channels of a pa_cvolume structure to a
 *                        certain volume.
 * \li pa_cvolume_reset() - Set all channels of a pa_cvolume structure to a
 *                          normal volume.
 * \li pa_cvolume_mute() - Set all channels of a pa_cvolume structure to a
 *                         muted volume.
 * \li pa_cvolume_avg() - Return the average volume of all channels.
 * \li pa_cvolume_snprint() - Pretty print a pa_cvolume structure.
