This should I think be a part of jack. I have a delta 66 which means
capture 1 to 4 are analog in, capture 9 and 10 are spdif in (analog 5 and
6 for me) and capture 11 and 12 are monitor mixer in. Capture 5 to 8 are
not usable and it would be nice to not show them at all, but it would be
nice to at least label them "NA" or "not in use" or something. Playback
has similar issues though I can at least use all the playbacks as inputs
to the monitor mixer... if I actually made use of it :) But labeling
(which affects ordering in displays BTW) would be really nice. I could
make a fake device with 6 inputs and 6 outputs which would be next best...
