Rahul, turning your words back on you feel free to explain the technical
issues. This issue has raised enough dust it might be wise to help the
dust settle.

I already did that in the first mail in this thread.

Excuse all of us who don't feel that "If your sound card doesn't work out of the box, file a bug report" isn't an explanation of the technical issues (and seems to assume a single sound card, as well). And "system-config-soundcard isn't your answer anyway. If you have to manually configure your soundcard for any program intended for desktop usage, that is just broken" sounds like an opinion rather than an explanation.

Neither of your first two posts seem to show ANY reason why system-config-soundcard was inadequate for the purpose. Maybe I'm missing the part where you tell people what was wrong with the way we have been doing it. And "we like something else better" is not a technical reason, since dropping a tool which people know how to use and making the default configuration choose different configurations just invites people to feel as if their time is being wasted.
