Good question.  The idea was to be able to do the mixing in the
AudioContext on a per-track basis.  We really need to be able to create
this node given a specific AudioMediaStreamTrack as well as a MediaStream
to have this fine a level of control.  Maybe if given a MediaStream, all
the tracks should be mixed together instead of taking the first track as
you suggest.
