Subject: [bug#39053] [PATCH 3/6] services: pulseaudio-configuration: Set flat-volumes to no.

From: Leo Prikler <[email-masked]>
Date: Fri, 10 Jan 2020 02:48:21 +0100

* gnu/services/sound (pulseaudio-configuration) [daemon-conf]:
Disable flat-volumes.  Enabling flat-volumes, as is the upstream default,
causes unpleasant experiences to users when applications inadvertently max
out the system volume (e.g. as in #38172).
