Research direction
Start by reviewing how DankMaterialShell currently exposes taskbar or top-bar controls and how it accesses audio devices; the issue names no files, tests, or entry points. Define the scope for system, microphone, per-application, and device controls, then verify that the finished feature supports the requested volume and device changes across all listed compositors.
