Right, so that might work well on your particular system with your
particular configuration but will it work well on other systems with
different hardware?  It's not clear to me that it makes sense to go
through all the drivers picking controls that might be used for this
purpose - it seems both time consuming and error prone.  Consider a
mostly digital device which has an ADC/DAC per input/output rather than
a central ADC/DAC with analogue muxing for example, or a system with
multiple DACs available for mixing together or analogue bypassess.
