Package: wmix
Version: 3.1-4
Severity: wishlist

I have a USB headset which appears as a second sound device.
Works well with "wmix -m /dev/mixer1".  And I must say that
wmix is my very favorite mixer of all!  There is one new
feature that would be nice though.  When I yank the USB headset
out of the computer, the wmix process is killed.  What would be
really fantastic is if wmix could survive such an event, and
resume unscathed when the device reappears upon reinsertion.

One way to accomplish this would be if wmix forked when it started
and the parent waited around until the child (which would do all the
work) died for the above reason and then the parent waited for
the device to reappear and restarted the child.  But there might be
some more clever way to accomplish the basic goal.

                                        Cheers,
