HTML5 Cordova increase audio volume while sound is playing using JavaScript

Is it possible to change the volume of sound while an audio file is playing in Cordova?

I found this related post, but it is almost 2 years old. Has it been implemented since?

I have tried changing the volume while it is playing using this method.

audio.setVolume(0.75);

I have also tried pausing the audio file, changing the volume and then playing it again.

audio.pause();
audio.setVolume(0.1);
audio.play();

But none of these methods seem to work.

Any ideas?
