I think the language of 1.4.2 needs an adjustment. Or it needs to be fixed
in the intent.

 

<current SC 1.4.2>or a mechanism is available to control audio volume which
....</current SC 1.4.2>

An example. Some authors might say the user has "control" if they can only
adjust the volume a bit... which would defeat the purpose of the SC and let
them have distracting background. Let's add to the Intent... "Control means
that the volume can be reduced to zero DB"
