Just like bug 564313 is about the volume, I think it would be a better experience if the balance slider changes were instantaneous.

Right. This is actually very bad IMHO: I had the sound turned to about 20%, went to the volume control and played with the slider, all the time keeping it pressed, so it did not actually change the volume. I concluded that the control was broken... and ended the click while pointing to 100%... Let's just say I could be dead right now if I had a faint heart ;)

The balance slider isn't the volume slider... The volume slider problem is already fixed.

Patch for the above. Doesn't behave great though. The slider seems to lag a bit, which makes it hard to use the resistance in the slider to get back to the middle value.

We'll see how people like it.
