Hi,

I'm a plain ALSA user. Some audio devices only work with special mixers
or are at least better to use with such mixers, e.g. prosumer Envy24
cards or certain professional RME cards. Finally, you can operate
alsamixer in xfce4-terminal, roxterm etc. with cursor keys and mouse. I
can't estimate how many of us basic ALSA users appreciate an extra layer
that might be a little more convenient, but possibly at the cost of
extra error-proneness.

Regards,
Ralf
