screen locked but volume rocker still active

I listen to Slacker Radio a lot and I noticed that even though my screen will be locked, the volume rocker on the side of the phone will still be active to change the volume for the music. I'm kinda on the fence about whether I like this or not (sometimes it's annoying to unlock the screen just to change the volume by a notch or two, but I also don't want to change the volume by accident when it's in my pocket), but either way, is it supposed to be like this?

Thanks guys!
 
Yes, it is supposed to work that way, and I love it. I go to bed listening to Pandora and I like turning the screen off. (That's a whole other thread.) Anywho ... it's nice to be able to adjust the volume with the screen locked/off.

Fantastic! I understand preference is debatable, but I'm glad I don't have a faulty rocker or anything.

Thanks again, Joe - You've been helping out with a lot of my stuff this week :)
