'casually listening to music in the background'
Important aspect.
Afaik Mixxx needs/grabs exclusive sound device access with certain sound APIs to achieve low latency, so in order to make mini mode easy to use it should load an appropriate soundconfig.xml
Latency is not that much of a requirement for mini mode IMO
btw switchable sooundconfigs would be a nice feature anyway, for different use cases like preparing with laptop only, and playing live with controller or multiple I/O devices lp:1516035
