Subject: Resolves: tdf#96989 videos playback at maximum possible volume

On systems with flat-volumes then setting the volume directly on the playbin to
100% results in resetting the global volume to the maximum possible volume.

We expect to set as % of the current system volume. Putting an intermediate
volume object into the pipeline does the more expected thing.
