Please never make separate mails when writing to different lists.
Otherwise people will contribute to each thread without knowing the

accessibility? Probably better ask [email protected]  or
report a bug against the alsa-lib package about it.

Yes, this was already reported, and in the todo list: it needs some
implementation on the grub side. They agree on the feature, it's now
"just" a matter of somebody taking the time to implement it.
