It is not tradition. Changing it would break userspace. For example, xawtv's
"radio" program expects this behavior (see the "-q" and "-m" parameters).

A typical radio usage is to do:

	$ radio -f 93.7 -q

And when user is done listening to radio:

	$ radio -m

Of course, for the above to work, the user needs to have a board wired into
the audio device, or with an speaker directly connected into it.
