If user A sets the Master to an appropriate control on card X,
and user B sets the Master to an appropriate control on card Y
this results in the folowing behaviour:

The user can then control the volume with the Dock Icon.

If you need it also in the Main Window, then you must use a more recent 
version of KMix, like the one from KDE4.2.
