gnome-volume-control is vastly improved in Jaunty. The Volume Control
Preferences menu now lists whether each 'track' pertains to "Playback",
"Recording", "Switches", or "Options".
The Alsa mixer still has too many options in the Preferences menu for my
on-board Intel audio hardware (see below). See the attached screenshot.
"Input Source" is listed three times, and "Capture", "Capture 1", and
"Capture 2" are indistinguishable to me. (The UI also gives me no clue
about what the IEC958 tracks are ...)
With kernel 2.6.28-ubuntu9, lspci -vv gives:

If I open an upstream bug report, should this be against alsa or gnome-
volume-control?
