so really lennart means 'no' :) they're not selectable via PA's mixer
interface. they will still be selectable via ALSA's mixer interface, and
hence via any alsamixer (alsamixer, kmix, xfce's mixer, gst-mixer as
long as it's around, etc).
(sorry for the self-reply) - and of course, this isn't a regression in
PA, as PA's mixer interface has never exposed these choices. so
nothing's got more restricted than it was before.
