All mixer controls of a card are managed with a single device node
(/dev/snd/controlCx), so it is not possible to use file permissions for
this.

However, in your recording program (or a separate tool), you can call
snd_ctl_elem_lock() for all mixer controls that no other program should
be able to change.
