I agree.  A link to sound preferences makes sense.  
The only issues I see are 1) alsamixer is not very intuitive and 2) it dumps users into a terminal which might scare the crap out of many of them. :)



Completely agree that a terminal app scares a lot of people, but in particular this one it's more friendly than it seems. In the interest of making it more friendly i asked for how to show lxterminal without the menus :)

And meanwhile we have nothing to do this job, alsamixer it's the best candidate (as it's already in Lubuntu!). Maybe if there's time, the sound applet could be connected to it somehow... but that's another story.

I think an easy shell script writing the "don't show menubar" in the config for executing alsamixer should do the trick. Another way would be executing alsamixer in xterm instead of lxterminal
