Fixed in ALSA 1.0.9.

This was never really an ALSA problem.  The confusion due to the large
number of mixer elements is resolved with recent versions of alsamixer
(by splitting the controls into Playback and Capture), and the Gnome
2.10 mixer now only displays the 4 or 5 most important controls by
default.

I agree that this is still a bug.  Should be fixed in the next ALSA
release.  Until then it's trivial to work around, and could in fact be
solved 100% in the mixer apps.

No comment.
