I am not sure about making pavucontrol a dependency, because it is optional. The mixer can be set in the preferences dialog. But the source has a reference to /usr/bin/pavucontrol

Maybe changing it just to pavucontrol (without the directory) and expect that it can be found in $PATH would be a better solution.

@worldofpeace what do you think about this?

I agree. Sometimes it's better left up to the environment when it's a gui application, and optional.
