You can change the volume to be controlled with RB and LB in the options on the Shield. I use it this way and it works fine. You just press the volume button and while the volume meter is on the screen you can control it with the bumpers.

 

With this update for the Shield you might have to reinstall Geforce Experience to get your games to show up. That's what I had to do. I really like the new interface on the Shield, though, it looks and functions a lot better than the old one.

Not what I meant . Before this update you could use the volume up and down buttons as buttons inside a button mapping for a game. Now it only maps the volume button itself.
