-<para>The <application>&applet;</application> applet enables you to control the sound volume on your system. The applet icon changes depending on the volume level that you select. For example, if you select a low volume level, the icon displays one sound wave emanating from the speaker in the applet icon. As you increase the volume, the icon changes to display more sound waves. </para>
