Thats an old bug in i.e. kmix or gmix. If you're setting soundlevels
via kmix it gives devicenames not known to alsa. So the way you
fixed it is AKAIK the easiest way to get rid of the stat messages of
alsa-utils. Nevertheless you must be careful setting your
sounddriver not using a mixerdevice which isn't compatible to
alsamixer, though.
