For ALSA, a potential candidate GUI mixer is "gamix". For PulseAudio, maybe we can use "pama". Both are written in pure C language IIRC. Please evaluate them if possible. They are not the best ones, but at least they will be better then "xterm -e alsamixer". Other ones I can find are written in python or some other scripting stuff.
