alsamixer can be used by command line and by ncurses [1] and here's an
anecdote, a blind user, he is able to see light, but can't use GUIs,
tried to get SPDIF working by using alsamixer. I used a GUI and compared
the settings with alsamixer to help him. It often is much easier to use
a GUI [2].

It depends to the tasks. I'm used to use command line for many things,
most are related to administrative tasks, less are related to
audiovisuell user space.
