Hmm... I'd find it useful for vdr's volume controls to be passed through to
(g)xine (I've got gxine passing keypresses to vdr, but I'm not entirely happy
with it yet). That'll reduce the configuration issue to that of how do I tell
it that it should be controlling the volume of ALSA device 1, not device 0...
