Howto resolve issues with gmplayer errors "[AO_ALSA] Unable to find simple control 'PCM',0"

It's really easy to solve, all you need to do is open gmplayer.
Go to gmplayer's Prefences -> Audio there you should tick the
Enable Software Mixer. That's it you shouldn't experience the problem any longer :)
