Do you have an example to show me?
I googled a bit but I couldn't find anything!

RE: alsamixer

Alsamixer is an interactive (crudely done graphical) program. There is plenty of documentation on line. I Googled 'alsamixer' and gots lots of hits, so you should do that and start reading links.

I use alsamixer frequently. There are some hits on the screen regarding function keys and what they do. In general after opening the program you press F6 to choose the sound card from a list of cards currently registered to the alsa subsystem. You can choose to see all the card's controls, or only the input or output controls. One of the controls is active at a time. Up/Down arrow keys will change the level and right/left arrow keys move from one control to the next. The m key toggles muting on and off for that control. When muted the level shown in the box below the control's vertical bar shows 'MM'.

What controls are shown depends on what is written into the alsa driver.

RE: alsamixer

Ah, sorry about my misunderstanding.

Why are you inspecting via the very old gstreamer-0.10???

I tried gst-inspect-1.0 alsamixer and there was no such element or plugin found. It might be deprecated. I go here for all my gstreamer documentation:

https://thiblahute.github.io/GStreamer-doc/plugins_doc.html?gi-language=c

There is no alsamixer listed there.

Mixers since GStreamer 1.0 have been deprecated and removed. You should
use the appropriate OS API for your needs. GStreamer element for that
is a just a miss-fit.
