Description Alexey Rusakov 2008-08-20 04:52:12 UTC 
Now the applets created by gnome-applets-mixer suggest to select a track to control. (Example: "Master", "Headphone", "PCM", etc.) But all
these track are "volume levels".

Actually, there are other useful controls. Look at gnome-volume-control: the tracks visible by gnome-volume-control include also tracks
of another type: "discrete" switches (on/off). Example: "Microphone Capture", "Mic Boost" etc.)

I would like the applets to be able to be associated with such switches as well.

For example, I used to frequently switch "Mic Boost" on or off. It would be convenient, if could be done quickly (by the applet).

So, an applet should either be associated with a continuous value (volume level) or with a discrete switch (then it would have a different
look, of course).
