Funny, when I run it, I get the Alsa mixer, even though I have Pulse
Audio running. But I guess that is because the Alsa mixer was the
one that I was using the last time I closed the mixer, and it
remembers the last state it was in. In your case, it can not display
the PA mixer if PA isn't running, so you get the Alsa one. But you
can change the mixer you get by opening the drop-down menu to the
right of where it says Device:. I actually have a choice of two
different Alsa mixers - one for the sounds card, and one for the TV
card.
