Hi,

Currently, all playback switches are described as mute. It is shown as:

[OO] == sound is on (left and right channels)
[MM] == sound is muted (left and right channels)

But cards can have different kinds of switch controls, not only mute. At
least usb-audio provides boolean controls as playback switches for:

* clock source validity (read only switch)
* processing features on/off (rw switch)
* potentially other similar use-cases

It becames confusing, because it is shown as:

[OO] == clock source is valid
[MM] == clock source is invalid

[OO] == processing feature is on
[MM] == processing feature is off

And from the help, it is not clear how to toggle such switches.

Could you show such control elements to help reviewers? For example, output from 'amixer' might be enough.
