pactl is able to do this. First list all playing applications (sink-inputs) and identify the ID like described here: http://unix.stackexchange.com/questi...mixer-or-pactl then use pactl set-sink-input-volume [ID] [volume]%

Here an example:


//EDIT: For app developers: All of this should be doable via dbus, too. Just read into PulseAudios APIs.
