shuerhaaken/xnoise — Issue #5: Volume slider resets at program start

I nearly always set and leave the program's volume to 100%, but when I start Xnoise I always find that the program's volume slider has lowered itself to about 1/3 of the maximum level. Interestingly, the initial level of the slider doesn't seem to affect the actual volume of the program. If I leave the volume slider at 1/3 and don't touch it, the actual volume still seems to be at 100%. But as soon as I adjust the slider, even just a tiny bit, the actual volume changes to whatever level is indicated on the slider.

If I do not adjust the volume at all (leave it at 1/3) and exit the program, the next time time I start the program I find the slider has lowered itself to 0%. At this point the volume is muted, and I have to manually raise the volume slider before I can hear anything.

I'm using Xnoise 1.31 on Arch Linux x86_64. The problem also exists in the master branch, as of 8 February 2011.
