Public bug reported: This bug is a regression, I think; I was having this same problem before upgrading to 12.10, then installed a patched version of some file (can't remember which, and can't find the old bug report, sadly). Now with the upgrade, when opening Sound Settings and selecting my Alesis Multimix USB mixer, the dialog crashes with the following in syslog:
gnome-control-c[4009]: segfault at 7fffa3efcd48 ip 00007f56af59e9f2 sp 00007fffa3efcc10 error 6 in libc-2.15.so[7f56af556000+1b5000] If I try setting the mixer as default use pacmd, Sound Settings crashes on opening.
