Audacity uses PortMixer a wrapper around the native OS specific soundcard access implementation.
I could be helpful, but it works somehow weak for Mixxx, since it tries to predict which control is for which stream.
It may hides details of the sound card hardware that might be required to touch to solve a certain problem.

VLc interfaced via as set of plug-In directly to the native API.

A high end solution for Mixxx coud be to extend PortMixer to our needs. This will finally end up in a view that looks similar to Alsamixer :-/
