amixer has met my needs nicely for a number of years. Takes some
getting used to, but the simplicity makes it worth the effort for me.

aumix has an ncurses interactive mode much simpler than
alsamixer, and also a command line mode.

...which IMHO could be very useful:

- alsamixer is good, but (?) it has a ncurses interface...

- alsamixergui is a gui (FLTK) frontend for alsamixer which code is kept
  unchanged, but the gui is really poor: 
  + you cannot change the mixer device to control from inside the gui
  itself 
  + there is no user configuration available (i.e. you cannot change the
  font size, which could be a problem if text is displayed too small etc)
  + there is no integration with the desktop theme/layout
  + ...

- qasmixer maybe good... but it is qt not gtk...

- other mixers for alsa? I do not know...

So a good gtk gui for alsamixer (just a gui, whitout code changes) would
be very useful ("good gtk gui" I mean: gtk, with desktop layout
integration, user configurable).

hum... let me suggest use a different name (g refers gnome too much)...
say gtkamixer or amixer-gtk or gtkalsamixer and similar...

Thanks
