worldofpeace dc923b6ad1 nixos/pulseaudio: disable flat-volumes by default 
The motivation for this is that some applications are unaware
of this feature and can set their volume to 100% on startup
harming people ears and possiblly blowing someone's audio
setup.

I noticed this in #54594 and by extension epiphany[0].

Please also note that many other distros have this default for
the reason outlined above.

Closes #5632 #54594

README 

To build the manual, you need Nix installed on your system (no need
for NixOS). To install Nix, follow the instructions at

    https://nixos.org/nix/download.html

When you have Nix on your system, in the root directory of the project
(i.e., `nixpkgs`), run:

    nix-build nixos/release.nix -A manual.x86_64-linux

When this command successfully finishes, it will tell you where the
manual got generated.
