VLC setting volume from command line/bash

Seems to be a known bug. Volume option doesn't have any effect

For anyone that comes by this later, I had to disable the "Save audio" option under the audio settings for this to work. I also had to use one of the other audio settings. Mine was:

--mmdevice-volume=<float [0.000000 .. 1.250000]> 

Other options are

--directx-volume=<float [0.000000 .. 2.000000]> 
--waveout-volume=<float [0.000000 .. 2.000000]>
