The aucatctl
utility sends MIDI volume

sndiod(1) server for output. It can send
a master volume system exclusive messages as well to control the volume of
the mix of all streams.
The options are as follows:
In no expression is given, aucatctl
displays the list of streams known by the server and their respective
volumes. If an expression is a stream name, then the volume of this stream
is displayed. If the expression is a stream name followed by "="
followed by a decimal in the 0..127 range, then the stream volume is set to
the given value.
The special master stream corresponds to the mix of all streams and sends master volume system exclusive messages.

$ aucatctl sox0=127 mplayer0=127 aucat0=127 master=127
Set master volume to 85 and mplayer volume to 100
$ aucatctl master=85 mplayer0=100 master -> 85 mplayer0 -> 100
