that open() will support large files if supported, and if not, this

alsactl: Read only *.conf files when a directory is passed via INCLUDE
When alsactl init is invoked and a directory path is passed to INCLUDE
command in the config file, read only *.conf files in that directory.
This will avoid reading backup files or invalid files that have been
created accidentally.
Also by using scandir() with alphasort(), alsactl reads the files in
alphabetical order. Thus it's highly recommended to use some number
prefix to the file name for assuring the order.

alsactl: Do not access other cards than specified for init
When the global state does not exist, alsactl tries to
initialize all soundcards. It is not good when alsactl
is called multiple times from udev. Also, selinux can deny
access to non-existent devices.

aplaymidi: clarify multi-port documentation
The man page did not document what happens when multiple ports are
specified; this could be misinterpreted as the events being duplicated
so that they are played on all ports simultaneously. As suggested by
Peter Billam, clarify that these ports are only used for multi-port MIDI
files.

alsamixer: Fix X-win related crash for PulseAudio plugin (bad linking)
A lot of reports that alsamixer crashes in X terminal when the PulseAudio
CTL plugin is activated were entered to the tracking systems.
I figured that there is a linking clash for the shutdown() function.
The shutdown() function in glibc is socket related, but the alsamixer code
redefines this function and appearently that under some linking
circumstances - which PA client invokes during the runtime dynamic linking
- the wrong function is called.
This patch, for safety, renames the shutdown() function from alsamixer
to app_shutdown(), but it might make sense to figure the real linking
culprit to avoid future surprises.

aplay is limited to 32 channels, which makes it impossible to use it for

The CD analog playback line is seldom used these days, as all
modern players rip the CD and use the DAC on the sound card.
In addition, it causes background hum on some machines.
Therefore keep it muted by default.

When the range of a control has changed between driver versions, it is a
good idea to restore the same dB value of the control. However,
computing the dB value by interpolating betweem the min/max dB values
