PulseAudio.
So normally, my setup involves sending audio over the network to another PC via a Pulse network sink. However, that PC recently exploded (rest in piece, 9900k) and while I'm waiting on a replacement, I'm using the PC that's running Audacious as my main machine. The bug doesn't occur when Pulse isn't dumping into a network sink.

Well, it is PulseAudio server that remembers stream/device volume levels and restores them on a per user/per application basis. Audacious doesn't need to save and restore the volume levels.
