At first impression, I like the new preferences>sound control. Unfortunately it still can't select the CD audio input on an ALC889A codec. This is on a Gigabyte ga-ep45-ud3p motherboard and Core Duo 8500.
See the "New Mixer Handling in PA 0.9.16/F12" thread on fedora-devel list for why the CD audio input is deliberately not available.
I can't recall the last time I had an audio connection betweeen a CD/DVD drive and the "CD audio" connector. I do use the "CD audio" input as a separate audio input. Perhaps some will recall the "Input Selector" on audio equipment. In the case of my main office machine, the line input connects to a VLF antenna and the "CD audio" input connects to a communications receiver.
The "New Mixer" thread mentioned an alternative mixer that does not have this brain damage. Which mixer is that??

See drago01's reply, but also note that gnome-volume-control in Rawhide (and hence F12) now has sanely implemented support for input channel switching.
