Here are some screenshots
When volume goes too high, there will be a warning.
Volume in normal level.
Volume is silenced.
By default I have set Volume widget to a fixed position. If the position I have chosen does not work for you, then look at the code and change the coordinates. As always, the code is commented and easy to follow. I have also set Volume widget to ignore the close event. ALT+F4 will not work by default. If you need that functionality then comment out these lines
#Ignore ALT+F4. We want to avoid accidental closing.
def closeEvent(self, event):
event.ignore()
