i want to adjust the main volume using a terminal command.

by the main volume, i mean the volume slider that appears in the status area. i want to run a command, and have this slider move. {this is the media volume, and its used for all x-maemo streams, and is inherited by other apps, yadda yadda.}

i have investigated pa_cvolume, phonon, qmediaplayer, pactl/alsamixer/amixer, and looked around for dbus calls. this...shouldnt be this hard. please, somebody read this and answer my prayers.

note: i do not want to adjust the volume with the volume keys {e.g. by setting resource policy in a qt app}.
i do not want to lower or raise the maximum volume {e.g. with alsamixer}.
i want to do the precise equivalent of grabbing that central volume slider and dragging it.
