  The volume is an integer from zero to 43. The 0.0 to 1.0 value passed
to other routines gets mapped into this range. I'm not at all sure
what sort of relation this 0-to-43 has to, say, decibels. I think you
can set the volume (right & left) directly using one of the SND*()
calls -- SNDSetVolume(), probably.
