My main issue with Erwan's patch is that it won't totally work the way he expects it to i believe. I think we need to rethink how we use the mixer and bury more of the control all audio logic further back into it. Also i think alsa is gonna throw a few curves at us depending on the sound card used. They occasionally have some different names for channels and such. That's why currently it is easier to have the user monkey with the mixer externally since he can figure out what works for him.
Also erwan releases the mandrake stuff and would rather not have that patch intergrated in it (but avaiulable as a patch in the contrib dir is fine, trying to save on troubleshooting headaches).
