+  /* FIXME: translate this? */
+  if (dupecount == 0) {
+    label = g_strdup (alsa_name);
+  } else {
+    label = g_strdup_printf ("%s %d", alsa_name, dupecount);
+  }

That breaks the translations (and the default visible tracks) in
gnome-volume-control itself. You'd need to keep the same "untranslated-label"
property, and add an "index" property for gnome-volume-control to manipulate,
and present to the user properly.

And you should use snd_mixer_selem_get_index(), so you don't need to change the
prototype of the functions:
