Fine Tuned Volume Controls Gone?

Just downloaded Lion today. I love most of it, but a few things are a bit aggrivating. Mostly just getting used to the new gestures and controls, but I just realized I can't fine tune the volume on the keyboard by using the shortcut I used to.

By pressing Option+Shift+(volume up/down button) I was able to adjust the volume more acutely than just pressing the volume control buttons. I know I can drag the volume thing up on the menu bar, but I'm wondering if there's a new shortcut to do this or if the feature is just gone altogether... Hopefully this is making sense. Please help if you can. 🙂 it would be a great convenience.

Really Apple? I mean really?! I would so like to know the reason for doing this. What could possibly be in their way that they decide to remove fine volume tuning in Lion? This is completely beyond my comprehension and way further from sanity.


I can only hope that this is a bug. They must return this option and it should be in the next update. It's amazing how little things like this can make your blood pressure rise instantly.
