and includes fixes for the following, whose reporters have not yet confirmed:

None of these is marked as a blocker, as no single instance of this type of bug (bad default ALSA volume settings which cause PA-based volume controls not to work properly) is a blocker. However, the weight of combined fixes for all these is significant, and this cannot really usefully be shipped as a 0-day update, because when default volume settings are changed by an update, they are not applied unless the user runs a manual command 'alsactl init' due to how ALSA works.

I think that only alsa-lib package was updated. Please, update also alsa-utils to 1.0.20-3 (I've not seen e-mail notifications from koji for this package). Thanks.

Whoops. Tagged.
