None of them would. PulseAudio is at a higher level than ALSA and does
not actually provide any kind of interface (user-interfacing, or API)
for controlling individual ALSA mixer channels as Jon wants to. It's not
what PA is _for_. PA's take is that if you want to control individual
ALSA mixer channels, use an ALSA mixer. GNOME's take is they don't want
to write an ALSA mixer. So if you want a graphical ALSA mixer...find one
and use it. GNOME doesn't consider themselves to be in the business of
providing one.
