Thanks for the good suggestions - I'll have a pop at the daemon and
see how it goes.
Cheers,

Here's one for you
my keyboard has a scroll wheel, and I currently
have it hooked via dwm to run an external shell script to
increase/decrease the volume.
anyone got any smart ideas about this?
Write a simple volume control daemon, that makes a named pipe. Then,
in dwm call spawn on shell commands that echo UP,
Maybe something like tudor-volumed? I know its not exactly suckless, but it
might get you started or give you a few ideas.

If you want to listen for alsa mixer changes you can try scripting
around `amixer events`. It seems to be undocumented but works.
Here is mine: it waits at most 10 seconds for ALSA events, so the status
bar is updated whenever you change the volume. I have the following in my
dwm config.h:
static Button buttons[] = {
...
{ ClkStatusText,0, Button1,spawn,
{.v = volmutecmd } },
{

Awesome, thanks!
Thanks,
wait for alsa events is much better than update every second.
Have you found good alsa documentation? In my opinion official alsa
api docs sucks.

Yes, the documentation sucks, but it was good enough for this.
