We are about to start another sprint on the scenario manager in
September. Eventual aim would be to merge in into alsa-lib and salsa for
audio hardware control abstraction. i.e. abstract per device/card
hardware audio mixers/muxes/gains/attenuations/switches settings into a
generic and meaningful scenario (or use case) e.g. "Headset Phone Call".

dbus integration is something that interests me. Please take a look at
the scenario lib public header and let me know if the API fits into your
design.
