 Explain the Audio Mixer Setup options of Media preferences]:

 * Remove the option "Attenuate mixer output by 3 dB (like BeOS R5)". It
 stays the default behaviour. (There hasn't been much feedback on that in
 the ML thread, but a quick web research suggests tat providing this
 'headroom' is often used to avoid clipping.)

 * ~~Remove the option "Use non linear gain sliders (like BeOS R5)". It
 stays the default behaviour.~~

 * ~~The options for "Resampling algorithm" can be renamed to:  ~~
     ~~a) "Low quality (drop/repeat samples)"~~\\
    ~~ b) "Better quality (linear interpolation)"~~\\
     ~~(with maybe a future option for a "High quality" algorithm)~~
