Comment (by afercia):

 Worth noting mediaelement.js uses an `aria-label="Volume Slider"` so
 '''any''' text inside of the volume slider gets overriden and the hidden
 text is not available to screen readers. This confirms it's still there as
 a fallback for (very) old assistive technologies that don't support aria-
 label and role=slider.
