[Pkg-alsa-devel] Bug#582762: Bug#582762: /usr/bin/alsamixer: no sound, due to non configuration menu into alsamixer

[yellow protoss]

Dear Elimar,

I tried many things to get the hardware sound cards in right order. I ended
up into modifiying so much , that I had to reinstall LINUX debian.
I cannot make it because also I often have to change the USB devices. I have
lot of sound devices and it is impossible to change this order each time I
unplug an usb. The thing is that I have to let the main sound card as number
0 and one as 2, and leave the other ones as variable for such things like
webcam/mics...

Well let's wait that ALSA release a package that leaves the way to memorize
the order of cards at boot from the alsamixer.

Thank you for your interests into the package.

Best regards
Y.
