Any app can do it right now via the V4L2 api.

What is the sense of capturing data for a device that is not ready
for stream? PA is doing the wrong thing here, due to the lack of a
better API support: it is starting stream on a device as a hacky way
of probing it. As Lennart pointed, even considering a pure audio device,
this is ugly and takes time.
IMO, the right long term fix is to provide alsa some ioctl that allows
PA to get the needed info without needing to start streaming, and, for
the short term, to prevent it to start capture on tuner/grabber devices.

Userspace application breakage is not allowed. A change like
that will break the existing applications like mplayer.

Maybe your device is not a saa7134. For saa7133/saa7135, the
mute/unmute seems to be done via GPIO, and via amux.

Well, the change seems to be simple, as we don't actually need to
split the mute. We just need to control the I2S input/output at
the alsa driver.
The enclosed patch probably does the trick (completely untested).
As I said before, before adding this patch upstream, we need to double
check if it will work with saa7134, saa7133 and saa7135, preserving
the old behavior on those devices.

saa7134: Don't touch at the analog mute at the alsa driver
Instead of setting both analog and digital parts of the driver, alsa
just needs to enable/disable the I2S capture.
