I certainly used the UI controls in the past, but ....

1) I haven't tried them in pcp 7, and the underlying card control has
changed with the latest kernel.   Probably still works of course, but
not sure - e.g. if you're using HDMI, which devices is device 0?
2) It's a bit trial and error as to which card and device you're
specifying.  Easy if you're using the built in audio if that's device 0,
but less easy if you've got more cards
3) You can't use this approach with equaliser, which was actually my
original use case.

It's easy to modify the asound.conf anyway, and adding new devices there
for me makes it easier to know for sure what I'm doing and doesn't risk
messing up any built in behaviour.
