Also, it puts the volume control for the CD under the influence of the
WAV slider, and not the CD slider. You probably want quite different
settings for your music versus your system sounds. It also means that
the sound drivers must properly share the WAV channel between the CD and
the system sounds, and some don't do this very well. The analog mixing
is so much simpler.
