I guess that amixer command created /dev/mixer device so aumix can find it now. Why was /dev/mixer was not created during instalation process I do not know!

That shouldn't be required unless snd_mixer_oss was not loaded before and amixer just triggered its loading somehow (see quoted README for details). Or maybe it's some other low-level module. You can compare the module lists before and after running that command (visible with "lsmod" command or in /proc/modules). > I guess that amixer command created /dev/mixer device so aumix can > find it now.
