As far as I understand it (hopefully others will correct me) the simple 
controls in amixer are an abstracted sub-set of the real controls, so
	amixer controls
shows the controls as generated by the card driver, and available through 
alsamixer.  But
	amixer scontrols
shows a simplified version, derived from the names(?).
