"Front Speaker", "Surround Speaker" seems to be a common enough name
to make it into alsa-utils, so we should probably care about it as
well. In this case, there was a macbook pro whose speakers didn't work
without these controls.
Seams reasonable.
Committed?
On a related note, have you ever come across a "Master Front" on your
travels?
To me it doesn't make much sense (was is "Master Front" that isn't
covered by "Front"?). Perhaps it's just a mislabelled "Master" - don't
suppose you remember fixing or seeing a fix for this?

Yes. The question is about what name controls the Front channel of the
Line-Out port but not the Speaker/HP, and what name controls the Front
channel of all those outputs (but still not Surround).
If I understand Takashi right, he wants "Front" to control all three of
them, whereas "Front Line-Out" would control only the first one. The
reality is that "Master Front" controls all three, the behaviour of
"Front" is inconsistent, and "Front Line-Out" does not exist.
We've distro patched "Master Front", but if my memory does not fail me
you chose not to upstream it when we went through the Ubuntu patches
together at the Desktop Summit.
