Title:
  Audacious has no suitable sound mixer

Status in audacious package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  During testing of Lubuntu 15.14 32bit image     20150513, the
  application "audacious" was unable to detect any suitable mixer
  elements. After I launched the program two errors showed,

  ALSA error: No suitable mixer element found.

  ALSA error: snd_mixer_find_selem failed.

  I expected the application to launch ready for the user to open an
  audio file to run. I have an installed Lubuntu 15.10 64bit system that
  I am using as a production system. The same problem existed when I
  launched the same application. Even after installed the audio codecs
  "gstreamer", audacious still could not detect a suitable mixer. The
  workaround will be to remove alsa and install pulseaudio.

  Expected results:
  Audacious opens waiting for an audio file to be opened

  Actual results:
  Audacious was unable to find a suitable mixer element
