 the almost empty audio/video settings if the real time stuff has been
 removed - or do you see any other problems?

    What setting did you have in mind ? I find the current mixer layout a
 bit difficult, but useful. Others comming from digital audio workstation
 work should find this to be true as well.

   Maybe obscure some settings and features behind at advanced/basic button
 would be better.
