$HOME/.Xmodmap is read by xfce startup script.

Add the corresponding keysyms and use the shortcut manager to
increase/decrease volume using a command line mixer.

keycode 174 = XF86AudioLowerVolume
keycode 176 = XF86AudioRaiseVolume
keycode 160 = XF86AudioMute

Another neat option would be to have a remote controller for the xfce
mixer and use it from the shortcut manager (a bit like the way
"xfdesktop --menu" works for example)

HTH
