I think I have been mislead by ignorance. I used rpm -q and found that the Updates sent out did work and I now have
gnome-volume-manager-2.15.0-4.fc6which I think was what you sent twice. So it is on my computer but the thing I bring up when I click on Volume Control is the one that doesn't work well. And it has version 2.16.1 and I wonder if there is another gnome package we need to load to get the old Volume Control. I will check around and see if I can find another package.
