I second your idea to create virtual packages with these functions. But the names should be carefully discussed. So, my 2 candidates: "audio-mixer" and "x-audio-mixer". Makes it more clear that we are talking about audio and the x- scheme fits better with x-window-manager and x-terminal-emulator. -- Oliver M.
