Just guessing:

They discovered that its possible to use dmix (with a global configuration)
and that more and more apps support dmix in a stable way...
And so they said, hey, why don't we create a general configuration for dmix
and make it the default alsa device?

Or was it just that newer ALSA version use and install dmix per default???
