+xfce4-volumed (audio volume management daemon)
+
+This daemon is responsible of making the volume up/down and mute keys of 
+the keyboard work automatically, and uses the XFCE 4 mixer's defined card
+and track for choosing which track to act on. It also provides volume change
+and mute toggle notifications if the notification daemon is running.
+
+This requires libnotify.

+# HOW TO EDIT THIS FILE:
+# The "handy ruler" below makes it easier to edit a package description.  Line
+# up the first '|' above the ':' following the base package name, and the '|'
+# on the right side marks the last column you can put a character in.  You must
+# make exactly 11 lines for the formatting to be correct.  It's also
+# customary to leave one space after the ':'.
