Bug Description
Currently, 1.12 has "Master Mix" (Enabled/Disabled) and "Master Output Mode" (Stereo/Mono) fields in the Sound Hardware configuration dialogue. I don't see the need for either of these fields. Regarding the "Master Mix" field, if one wants to turn off the master mix, then simply select "None" for the master output. Regarding the "Master Output Mode" field, Mixxx should automatically output in mono when a single channel is selected and in stereo when a pair of channels is selected. Perhaps I'm lacking imagination, but I can't think of a case when it would be useful to output to a pair of channels in mono. If there is no need for the ability to do this, then there is no need for the "Master Output Mode" field. Keeping these fields on the dialogue is unnecessary clutter.

Outputting two mono channels is often needed for certain really crappy venues that downmix everything to mono from stereo -- if you don't provide both channels the mains levels would be half what they should be.
Removing Master Mix might be possible
