Well, in some games you can select from a few choices:

        - in-game sound
        - menu feedback sounds
        - background music

and turn them all off/on as desired.

I hadn't thought of volume, but yeah, that makes sense too.  It's probably
more important to get the balance right by default, but having it
adjustable would be good.

I just can see a situation where clicks could get annoying after 5 hours
of straight game play. :-)
