That is true. PA does not try to cover the complete functionality of
the hardware. We limit ourselves to what we think is common on the
desktop or in a mobile environment, and I don't think recording from
mic and line-in at the same time would be useful in more than
exceptional cases.

There is currently no API at all to figure out the relation between PCM
devices and mixer controls in ALSA. PA hences bases this all on
assumptions and expectes in this acse that the first mixer control is
also the first PCM device, if you understand what I mean by that.
