No reason, I think it was totally accidental. I'll look into it.

Title:
alsamixer controls pulseaudio volume by default
To manage notifications
Public bug reported:
Hi Luke,
Is there a reason you dropped unset_pulse_internal.patch (and two other
patches) from the latest version of alsa-utils?
Now when one runs alsamixer, it goes to PulseAudio by default. Is this expected
behaviour nowadays?
