Wow ... 
That's indeed something that has been on my ``figure out how to do this if
time left'' list ...

Unfortunately it does not work for me

% /opt/kde3/bin/dcop kmix Mixer0 increaseVolume
call failed
% /opt/kde3/bin/dcop kmix Mixer0 
object 'Mixer0' in application 'kmix' not accessible
% /opt/kde3/bin/dcop kmix 
No such application: 'kmix'

Currently listening to: The Smashing Pumpkins - 05 - Porcelina of Vast Oceans
