I don't believe so, but I have not built and tested every one. The old
one setup an alias "mixer0" to hardware card 0, which isn't necessary
for alsamixer to work and should be the default anyway.
I don't know what the motivation was to use dmix for the default pcm.

alsa-state: ship standard asoundrc (simple dmix configuration)
that should be a reasonable default for most devices
According to the alsa wiki, the asound.conf should not be required for
basic functionality:
