playbin2 (when used on a Pulseaudio-running platform) will initialize the stream volume and mute state from pulseaudio at some point in the streams lifetime. this is a useful feature but currently it's slightly annoying as the HTMLAudioElement gets updated with that initial value only after playback starts. 

This leads to a bad user experience (click play and suddenly the volume changes) and we should be able to fix that. We already set the stream to GST_STATE_PAUSED asap after the url has been set: volume and mute state should be available at that point.

I'll cook up a patch.
