Thank you for the recommendation. I just bought me one,
and I am very satisfied with the sound.

I disabled the onboard azalia, so that the mobilepre
becomes audio0. Now the device reports as

uaudio0 at uhub1 port 2 configuration 1 interface 0 "M Audio MobilePre" rev 
1.10/1.03 addr 2
uaudio0: audio rev 1.00, 9 mixer controls
audio0 at uaudio0

Indeed, mixerctl says (using zero configuration,
that is, no /etc/mixerctl.conf):

        inputs.line.mute=on
        inputs.line=0,0
        record.line.mute=off
        record.line=205,205
        inputs.dac.mute=off
        inputs.dac=205,205
        outputs.mix8-i7=0,0
        outputs.spkr.mute=off
        outputs.spkr=230,230

Can you please share your mixerctl output on the Mobile Pre?

I am pleasantly surprised that there are so few controls.
Last time I saw this was on an old Compaq laptop that has
just a mic in and line out, and has controls for just that,
plus the record/master volume. My current HP laptop doesn't
really have much more, but has 54 (azalia) controls.

BTW, why is it that the details of mixerctl controls
are described in azalia(4), which is just one of possible
audio interfaces? Surely non-azalia devices can be
mixerctl'ed too, and the control names mean the same,
right?

Also, why is the mixer named 'outputs.mix8-i7' (and not just 'outputs.mix8')?
What is the i7 'property' (in azalia terms)?

        Thank you for your time

                Jan
