Not fixed in Karma:

How to reproduce:
- open pavucontrol (0,9,8+git20090701-0ubuntu2) and an alsamixer of your choice (e.g. kmix)
- start an audiostream
- adjust volume at alsa
- switch to pavucontrol window, et voila: it changes the alsamixer settings.

I am a victim of the horrible distortions when PCM is >80%.

Proposed solution: pulseaudio should NOT change ANYTHING at the device mixer settings and behave like "internal volume" controls of most media software.

Altermative solution: pulseaudio adapts ALL mixer possibilities of Alsamixer, and not just one main mxer, that sets PCM to 100% and than ajusts only main out.
