In alsamixer there are two things marked with the red
"CAPTUR"; line in is the source and "Capture" is the
destination. I believe the "Capture" item is there so
the capture volume can be set at an appropriate level
no matter which source is used. Any ideas on how to make
this all sound less strange?
