Btw, just a quick question so I know the limitations: What are the
maximum size (in pixels) of the sound settings dialog? Are we designing
for 1024x768, 800x600 or even less?

Hi again!
Apart from working on the PulseAudio side, I've made a new mockup, here:
http://people.canonical.com/~diwic/sound-settings/sound_settings_mockup_diwic2.png
Comments about the mockup:
First remember, I'm not a designer (the previous mockup was not made by
me), so please don't laugh about left margins not being pixel aligned
and such. Also, out of laziness I started off with a screenshot from my
current system, so if there's some Ubuntu theming in there, just ignore
that. :-)
The names in the left pane is the actual names we get out of PulseAudio
today. I'd probably submit a PA patch to remove some of the "Analog" and
"Audio" in the names, as I find them mostly superfluous.
Fade will be hidden for profiles with less than four channels and
Subwoofer will be hidden if there is no LFE channel.
The "Volume Boost" can be debated until we all fall down dead, I left it
out for now as I personally don't think +11 dB fits all. I guess there
will be some space available if the debate ends up with implementing it.
And finally a question:
I tried hard to fit the pixel margins of 675x490 in the mockup. But may
I ask what hardware we're actually targetting here? It seems like most
netbooks [1] are either 800x480, in which case 675x490 won't fit, or
1024x600, in which case there should be plenty of more, at least on the
width side? Or am I missing something?
