The sliderlr, etc layers are just for straight sliders. If you want to make a curved slider you'll have to use the Animation layers with the type set to the relevant value. I.e. 6 for volume, 7 for progress.

hahah try this workaround ;)

put a 1% transparent white layer which masks your slider and cut out the only allow the part you want to be used as a slider - kerching :)
Of course it will always be a straight slider but with only allowing the part you want to be active it will behave like a curved slider

Your best option is to rip apart another skin that does what you need. In fact the latest addition to the skins page, Solar Circle does the curved sliders : http://xion.r2.com.au/index.php?page=skins&id=634
