The volume is controlled properly and the CPU does not max out. Some time later, I repeatedly notice it has begun using 100% of both my cores. I have an onboard sound chipset that dmixes properly with alsa. I do not use a sound daemon of any kind. I also have a (mostly-unsupported by Linux) Creative X-Fi sound card which is plugged in but unused. The plugin detects the following sound cards: NVidia CK804 (Alsa mixer) - this is the onboard chipset that I use all the time. Monitor Integrated Webcam (Alsa mixer) - one of my DFP microphones pcsp (Alsa mixer) - I have no idea what this is. Monitor Integrated Webcam (Alsa mixer) - one of my DFP microphones (dual monitors) Realtek ALC850 rev 0 (OSS Mixer) - I'm assuming this could be my X-Fi, but it really looks like something else. In any case, I've not seen it before. That's the list exactly as I'm given it. I haven't been able to find out what causes the mixer to go crazy. My sound card is not disconnecting as in bug 4962, but I think it may be a related problem, so I would suggest taking both bugs into account. Thanks for all of your hard work. All of us appreciate XFCE.

I wanted to update this bug, because I now know that it is directly related to bug 4962. The plugin works properly without issue until I turn off my monitors (something I do when I go away from my PC). When I come back, and turn them on, I notice the CPU is at maximum usage. This is because the USB microphone/hub/webcam imbedded in the monitors is one of the available devices to control using the mixer plugin. As soon as they are detached, it is the same issue as in bug 4962 - the CPU load goes up immensely, as though the plugin is trying to check or configure the microphones that were powered off. And obviously when they are powered back on, it still freaks out. Hope this helps.

There are changes on the bug, and a workaround (attached to the discussion).
