So beyond just independent volume control, the ability to actually 
reroute different audio channels? This feels even beyond UAAG and 
something that needs to be dealt with at OS level itself. But 
fundamentally, not something that's specific to "mobile" in my view, but 
an equally valid problem on all platforms (but it just so happens that 
currently on phones/tablets, due to their OS limitations/architecture, 
the problem is most prominent).
