A back end specifies its channel map during creation, so it's static during its lifetime. But we identify the back end using a name, so it is possible that "our" back end could get removed and another loaded with the same name. It is possible to get notifications when this happens though, so we can handle this gracefully. > In theory, ALSA controls can dynamically added/removed.
