    mixer(8): Implement hot-swapping
    
    Introduce a -V option, which can be used alongside -d (default unit
    change), in order to hot-swap devices (i.e switch to them on the fly
    without needing to restart the track), in case virtual_oss(8) exists and
    is running.

+Hot-swapping generally cannot happen with plain

+.Xr virtual_oss 8 ,
+on the other hand, can do hot-swapping, because it creates a virtual device for
