        I'm looking for a plugin to let me change the setting of the *System* volume, a type you have not mentioned here but which seems it could easily be implemented either in Locale itself or in a plugin. I've installed the AllVolumes plugin but Locale gives me lots and lots of warnings about the instability of this plugin - but it seems to be the only way for me to control the System volume setting. Seems to me that there is a hole here where something could to be done to control this specific type of volume similar to the Media, Voice, and Alarm volumes referred to here.

        I would like to be able to centrally control ALL of the volumes based on one of two conditions, either the Dock, or Headphones. What i would like to happen is for there to be a user defined standard set point for all volumes so that i can use GPS, listen to Pandora Radio, and take phone calls while driving. currently i have to separately adjust three volumes in order to balance them. how much better would it be to have them set automatically once the Droid determines that i have plugged the phone into the car radio, or it determines that it is in the car dock? then all i would have to do is set the radio volume to a comfortable level and pay attention to the road. PLEASE get this done. i installed the dock and the headphone plug-in, but uninstalled them when i realized that they cannot control the media, GPS, and in-call volumes.

        Please please PLEASE realize this one. This would be simply gorgeous! I need to turn the media sounds off when going to university etc!!

        Is it possible to set the media volume for the speaker separately from the headphones? It would be annoying to have it mute my headphones every time I walk into school, but it would be great if it would mute the speaker.

        I would also like to be able to set the volume for email, sms, etc. I have Locale set up to switch into "night" mode when plugged in at night. I need a way to keep emails from waking me up. Right now I just have Locale turn off auto-sync, but this would be a better solution.

        Just gave 3 point to this request, because I discovered that Volume setting doesn't affect Alarm volume. I want to wake me up gently on morning! :-)

        I use to turn off all notification (sms, mail, call ring) during night. But I use my Android to wake up me in the morning too, and I don't want to be forced to turn on notifications before my alarm rings. So I'd find very useful to separate alarm volume from the others. More than useful: necessary.

        You will find this is more annoying than not when you are playing music and you enter a condition that cuts the media volume...

        OH HECK YES. I use Locale to set my "Volume" to zero during my college classes, and it was mildly embarrassing when the class got ultra-boring, so I started playing a game under the table, and the whole room heard Hyperspace Lite start up. So now I know that "Volume" does NOT refer to media volume. Vote vote vote vote.
