Pygame defaults to using full volume. You can control the master volume 
with pygame.mixer.set_volume(). You can also adjust the volume per Sound 
or Channel, each has a set_volume().

Your initial example had the problem of the program quitting before the 
sound could really get started, but adding the delay will fix that.

I would recommend initializing ONLY the mixer module, and none of the 
others. Instead of pygame.init() call pygame.mixer.init(). If that still 
fails, do some tests with any other C programs that use SDL. What about 
other examples that run pygame?
