There is even more with kmix :  
 
- it is not possible to use second soundcard's mixer, while using ALSA. Kde (and kmix) 
always default to the first card (in my case onboard Intel chip) and my second PCI SB 
Live 
is not seen in the drop-down box, where you can select the mixer you want to use. With 
OSS, it works fine - you get a second mixer tab and that's it.  
 
- the labels are ridiculous - some sliders on the mixer are displayed, when in fact 
these 
are just switches in ALSA (e.g. have on/off value). Why there is a slider for THIS ? 
(e.g. the 
+20dB mic boost switch). Secondly, did you see the array of sliders for e.g. Audigy or 
SB 
Live ? That does not fit not only on one screen, but not even on TWO! (I have 
dual-head 
with Xinerama). Huge usability issue here, I think.  
 
I had to switch to use alsamixergui instead, but I am not exactly happy with it.

description: 
Enable the "show labels" option in the kmix. The kmix window becomes so wide 
that it stretches to 1.5 times my screen width of 1024. While it is a good idea to 
have all settings displayed, the labels are displayed very awkwardly.  
 
For example, instead of writing: 
3D Control Center 
in one line, it would save a lot of horizontal space it were written as: 
3D Control 
  Center 
 
Also, these big names run into each other so that its hard to figure out which 
channel has which label. The labels need to displayed in a clean way.
