The recent commit c867aa8a84 ("alsamixer: use background color
instead of COLOR_BLACK") changed the behavior of alsamixer to take the
system default background color instead of black. This caused
problems on the terminal setups that have bright background colors,
e.g. yellow is very hard to read.
It could be "fixed" by setting up the color configurations in
~/.config/alsamixer.rc, but this needs to change the all colors in
every element, which is pretty cumbersome. Instead, this patch
extends the config set command to allow user to specify the default
background color. A user like me can create their own
~/.config/alsamixer.rc file containing the line
set background black
and the old good black background is back again.
Note that, for achieving the above, we also had to shuffle the
function call order, to parse the config at first, then initialize
curses. This shouldn't matter for other behavior.
