Change volume with script

This ruby script works here.
May need to install ruby.

# Forked/derived from original by Jasper Van der Jeugt (jaspervdj);
# large chunks rewritten by Steven Saus (uriel1998)
# This is designed to set your pulseaudio volume settings, muting, and
# default sink from the command line.  It will even switch currently
# running streams to the new sink when you switch it!
# Usage will be largely for folks who are using keybinds for volume, etc.
# Originally wrote this to work with ALSA cards - that's what I have.
# (see line 46) but the code at line 45 *should* work for anything
# that's set up as a device in PulseAudio.  This is written to work
# with the version of PulseAudio I have on my system - 0.9.22.
# By perusing the online PulseAudio documentation, it looks like this
# *should* still work just fine for later versions.  Please ping me one
# way or another so I can properly document/fix it...

# To do:   -Set toggle (like the q toggle) so that actions only impact
#           current default sink
#          -Add in toggle so simple output available for notify-osd

# 20121114:uriel1998: Added introduction/description above
# 20121114:uriel1998: Standardized indentations
# 20121114:uriel1998: Rewrote if/else statements into case statements
# 20121114:uriel1998: Added usage instructions when no arguments given
# 20121114:uriel1998: Added quiet option
# 20121114:uriel1998: Added explicit setting of volume
# 20121114:uriel1998: Added explicit muting/unmuting instead of just
#                     toggling mute
# 20121114:uriel1998: Formatted output to be somewhat more human-
#                     readable, including padding & volume percentages
# 20121114:uriel1998: Added function to allow changing default sink
# 20121114:uriel1998: Added code to switch playing streams to new sink.
# 20121114:uriel1998: Rewrote array; arranged by sink id instead of name
# 20120210:uriel1998: Changed bit of code toggling mute
# 20120210:uriel1998: Added output, so it could be piped to a notify-osd
#                     or somesuch if desired. (superceded 20121114)
