One other thing:

The new update[1] in the docs from the bug I filed resulting from the
original bug report you filed seems to suggest that the Gst::Mixer
interface might not be the best way to control volume in an app.  It
suggests that either a Gst::Volume element or a Gst::Playbin be used in
a pipeline, or use the audiosink's volume property if it has one.
