Snd_ich/pcm, Devfs or ls bug?

Came across this little oddity while playing with audio:

root_at_lilshadow(/sys/dev/sound/pci):cd /dev
root_at_lilshadow(/dev):ls -l mixer*
crw-rw-rw-  1 root  wheel   30,   0 Jan  1 00:41 mixer0
root_at_lilshadow(/dev):ls -l mixer
crw-rw-rw-  1 root  wheel   30,   0 Jan  1 00:41 mixer
root_at_lilshadow(/dev)

I don't believe this is an ls(1) bug since an audio app couldn't find
/dev/mixer. Trying to symlink mixer0 to mixer fails with file exists as
well.

If you need any more info let me know.

PS If the problem is in ls(1) there is a patch on bin/59320 to fix a
formatting issue with the '-h' option.
