Yeah, ok. I guess I get it. I thought I was supposed to see the different streams,
like alsa, built-in digital, built-in analog, etc., or perhaps even different audio
applications, so that one can separately and independently set the volume for each,
like pulseaudio is touted to do.
Yes, I have only one sound card attached at present, the one on the main board and no
pci one, and I configured it with Lennart a few months back to get 4-speaker stereo
sound when we were debugging a problem. Luckily this update didn't change that, but I
believe the problem turned out to be an alsa, not a pulseaudio, one.
