Every time I upgrade I immediately UNinstall PA and use ALSA only - so I
still depend on xfce4-mixer . .
Have you tried pulse lately? I resisted it for years because of
flakiness. Then at some point something stopped supporting pure alsa.
And I gave in to try pulse again. And all is fine since that day
(actually controlling streams separately is an added feature).
So if you don't have some hard requirement, I think you can try out pulse.
