Describe the Bug

When playing an AudioVolume object the volume on the actual object will always get overridden with the volume on the ActiveVoiceState. This means you can't actually control the volume of a specific piece of audio using the AudioVolume itself.

I found this chunk of code which is doing the overwriting but I'm not sure if I'm missing additional context to this and maybe the volume should be getting pulled through from some other method. https://github.com/interactions-py/interactions.py/blob/stable/interactions/api/voice/player.py#L97-L99

Steps to Reproduce

1. Create an AudioVolume object
2. Set that AudioVolume object to have a very loud volume such as 4.0
3. Play that audio using context.voice_state.play(audio) and it will sound as if the volume was never changed

Expected Results

The volume should be much louder than the default volume of 0.5.

Minimal Reproducible Code

Python
from interactions import Client, slash_command
from interactions.api.voice.audio import AudioVolume

bot = Client()

@slash_command(name="play")
async def play(ctx):
    if not context.voice_state:
      await context.author.voice.channel.connect()
    audio = AudioVolume("music.mp3")
    audio.volume = 4.0
    await context.voice_state.play(audio)

bot.start("token")

Additional Information

I'm happy to put up a PR to fix this but I'm not sure what the exact intended behavior is. Should the AudioVolume.volume always override the ActiveVoiceState._volume, should there be a multiplicative effect, maybe a max or min call, or just taking the average of the two?

@LordOfPolls has been MIA as far as we're aware, but suggesting he knows the most about anything audio related in interactions.py, I'm still going to mention him here so he can take a look at it once he's back.
