SUMMARY
Prior to an update, gwenview would remember where the volume silder was when navigating through videos in a directory using the arrow keys to go next/previous. after an update, same behavior results in max volume level any time a new file opens. the volume setting was saved between sessions too, so you could close a window, then reopen a different file, and slider would remember where volume was set. this functionality has broke since last update

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. open file
2. lower volume
3. close file then open new (or navigate to next file)


OBSERVED RESULT
observe volume slider back at max

EXPECTED RESULT
slider used to stay at the previous setting
