+ ---help---
+ Enables monitoring of the built-in console audio output control
+ (headphone and speakers), which is operated by the mute and (in
+ some ThinkPad models) volume hotkeys.
+
+ If this option is enabled, ThinkPad-ACPI will export an ALSA card
+ with a single read-only mixer control, which should be used for
+ on-screen-display feedback purposes by the Desktop Environment.
+
+ Optionally, the driver will also allow software control (the
+ ALSA mixer will be made read-write). Please refer to the driver
+ documentation for details.
+
+ All IBM models have both volume and mute control. Newer Lenovo
+ models only have mute control (the volume hotkeys are just normal
+ keys and volume control is done through the main HDA mixer).
