Yes, there is no "one size" that will fit all. As there ain't "two 
sizes" that would fit two distinct parties ("consumers" 
and "professionals"). The distinction is pretty useless.

ALSA does the right thing to init with everything muted. So the next 
best place to do anything useful is distro installation and hotplug 
events. Distros should really improve their mechanisms to ask and 
remember what the user wants.
