You need the dreaded audio mixer - see the multimedia help. There's
no substitute for understanding how it works, but here's some code
which locates the master volume control:

// master volume details
  ml.cbStruct = sizeof(ml);
  ml.dwComponentType = MIXERLINE_COMPONENTTYPE_DST_SPEAKERS;
  if
(mixerGetLineInfo(MixerHandle,&ml,MIXER_GETLINEINFOF_COMPONENTTYPE)) {
    mixerClose(MixerHandle); return false;       // no wave out line
  }
//  mlc.cbStruct = sizeof(mlc);
  mlc.dwLineID = ml.dwLineID;
//  mlc.dwControlType = MIXERCONTROL_CONTROLTYPE_VOLUME;
//  mlc.cControls = 1;
//  mlc.cbmxctrl = sizeof(mc);
//  mlc.pamxctrl = &mc;
  if
(mixerGetLineControls(MixerHandle,&mlc,MIXER_GETLINECONTROLSF_ONEBYTYPE))
{
    mixerClose(MixerHandle); return false;       // no wave out line
  }
  MasterID = mc.dwControlID;
	mmax = mc.Bounds.dwReserved[1];      // compiler doesn't like
dxMaximum!
