    Your solution looks fine and it's in GIT sources since Thursday. And
I think if something was made not good then users will let us know. Thank
you very much. And I have plans to improve 'volumealsa' plugin a lot in
next version (0.9), making it widely configurable, able to use multimedia
keyboard, etc., and you're welcome to give any ideas and help.

    With best regards,
    Andriy.
