I think the mockup looks pretty good. The new tab order certainly reflects how 
often I use change different audio settings. You haven't removed any important 
features, and have added an on/off switch, so users can, for instance, mute 
their speakers in case their headphones come unplugged.
However, the new interface is not currently installed in any Ubuntu machines 
(except perhaps beta testers). Since your mockup doesn't fix this problem, even 
if it were being written into an update right now, this bug is not "invalid". 
The sound settings interface is certainly "in progress", but "invalid" would 
imply that the interface I am now using does not exist.
Also keep in mind that the settings manager is still stuck at one resolution, 
which is what this bug is truly about. Your new doesn't show a "maximize" 
button, so I'm assuming it cannot be maximized or resized. With any luck, you 
will consider that in the settings manager for 12.04, if you have any power 
over it at all. I'm optimistic enough about this to mark this bug as "in 
progress".
I have several years of experience in shell, C-like languages, and can learn 
new ideas quite quickly. I am interested in helping to write linux software of 
any kind, and I feel this is a perfect opportunity. However, I would still need 
assistance, as I don't know where to find the source code, and I would need 
someone to explain to me where the equivalent of "void main" is in order to get 
started. I would be willing to debug existing code as requested. I have also 
designed simple GUI for a 100x64 pixel display on a computer that wasn't 
intended for such graphics capabilities, so I can attempt to write the code for 
new GUI if mockups like yours are presented.
