Summary: Modification of volume control for M-Audio
Revolution 5.1
Description:
In Alsamixer (and KMix) is not possible to change volume of both chanels at
once. Slides with names "DAC" and "DAC1" corresponds to left and right
chanel.
I would like to make a suggestion to merge them together.

Yes, the idea looks fine for most ice1724 boards, but not nice for some
ice1712 boards which have really independent mono jacks.
So, I'd like to rather allow the driver to select the behavior, whether
mono or stereo controls.

Also, it'd be not difficult to modify the code for driver to pass a static
array of control names including "Front", "Surround", "CLFE", "Side", so
that the mixer elements become more intuitive, too.

Is second this suggestion. I consider the current implementation with
independent channel volumes broken (especially as there is no master
volume). I already had decided to make a similar patch, but I'm glad I
found this.
