Are you suggesting that on all drivers the the index part of a snd_mixer_selem_id_t directly relates to the subdevice id of a PCM stream on the same card? Is that true? Jaroslav, Clemens, Takashi, can you say something about that?
(tbh I find that very unlikely, given that the device index would not be encoded then)

Those are the per voice volume control of the hardware mixing sound card
This is a little bit different from the pulse pre-application volume control .
It seem that pulseaudio allow the application open only one audio stream , but this per voice volume control allow application to open more than one audio stream
e.g. Skype need to play the human voice and the ringing bell and it have to open two audio streams using either two hw devices or dmix
