Hi, David:

Just wondering whether you got your feature enhancement into alsamixer?
Did they accept it? If so, I'd be up for installing it and giving it a
spin.

I've been in the habit of using amixer, but no way can I remember all
the numid for my various cards! So, your patch sounds enticing.

Best,

Janina
