Don't use linear volume in listen along volume slider - #2329

I tried out a few different powers, 2 and 3 seemed to make the low end of the slider become muted while the slider was not at 0. 1.7 seemed like a good compromise. https://www.dr-lex.be/info-stuff/implement-a-volume-control.html

The default linear volume makes most of the volume slider be way too loud, making only the bottom 30% really usable.
Using powers is a decent approximation for the exponential curve that would be ideal:
