There is nothing wrong with this code in volume.el. If you restart
Emacs you will find it working. Note that a defvar form does not
change the value of a bound symbol. You can define the key in the
existing keymap, without restarting or otherwise rebinding the
variable, by evaluating the following:

   (define-key volume-mode-map "v" 'volume-quit)

Place point after the form and press `C-x C-e'.

This is a bug. The vlc program does not return after the song has
finished playing. I have no idea why. The VLC documentation [1] is not
very helpful to me. It would be nice if Daniel could help us out here.

While you're waiting for the bugfix, you can disable the VLC backend.

Daniel, I think VLC should have lower priority in the matching of
filenames to backends. Or rather, mpg123 should have higher priority.
