 You shouldn't set `LC_ALL' explicitly, otherwise it becomes difficult to
 override the other categories (like LC_NUMERIC) individually (LC_ALL always
 takes precedence). If you want to set a locale, just export `LANG=es_ES.UTF-8'
 in ~/.xinitrc or ~/.xsession. (The NetBSD console doesn't support UTF-8 I/O,
 nor fonts, so setting a UTF-8 locale is not very useful.)

 Can't reproduce this with pavucontrol from pkgsrc-2025Q4 on amd64/10.1-RELEASE.
 (Works fine with a "C" locale as before.)
 
 Can you try:
 
 $ env LC_ALL=C LIBGL_ALWAYS_SOFTWARE=true pavucontrol
