But wait a minute: ffado is not a released package! To be short: There are plans to incorporate these controls into the ffadomixer. And to have three kinds of things in ffadomixer: the special mixer-gui for a device (if it exists), a generic gui for the found controls (but without the assurance that these do anything on the device) and the generic controls for clock-source, etc. But as there is only 24 hours a day available, this will take some time and maybe this will only come in the 2.1-release... but ppalmers is more of an authority to state these things...
