Any way to put a volume control on the login screen?

Asked by Vaibhav Vaidya

I guess this could be a feature request. Login sounds can be annoying. Sometimes. Other times you want them. The best way would be to set this from the login screen? Any way to put a volume control on the main screen?
As a side, while the login screen is loading, a 'mute' button could also be added so that when the login screen does popup, there's no sound.

Since blueprint says,
GDM update to 2.32. GNOME Design has mockups for new greeter, but wont be ready for 3.0

maybe present the idea there.

Option, mute sound via keyboard.

The keyboard option has no visual confirmation, and my keyboard keys don't always work to change the volume in Ubuntu. I'll keep this question 'solved', and maybe request a control on the gdm page that you suggested. Thanks
