This bug was fixed in the package alsa-tools - 1.0.25-2ubuntu1

---------------
alsa-tools (1.0.25-2ubuntu1) quantal; urgency=low

  [ Logan Rosen ]
  * Merge from Debian unstable. Remaining changes:
    - envy24control should use /sbin/alsactl
    - Update Vcs-Bzr field

  [ Dmitrijs Ledkovs ]
  * This merge includes dropping Qt3 dependencies. (LP: #1029476)

alsa-tools (1.0.25-2) unstable; urgency=low

  * Remove qlo10k1 entirely. It's based on Qt3 which is going away for
    wheezy (closes: #604340).
  * As a side effect, simplify configure calls by removing obsolete
    options.
  * Do not build liblo10k1 with --enable-static and drop .a files from
    the -dev package.
  * Bump Standards-Version to 3.9.3, no changes needed.
  * Remove Mikael Magnusson from Uploaders.
  * Don't install upstream AUTHORS files, the info is already in copyright.
  * Use dpkg-buildflags when configuring, to enable hardening flags.
    Add a build-dependency on dpkg-dev (>= 1.16.1).
  * Refresh all patches.
  * Add lo10k1_format-security.patch to fix -Werror=format-security build
    errors uncovered by the hardening flags now in use.
  * Add ac3dec_cflags.patch to avoid overwriting CFLAGS.

Bug description:
  Qt3 has been EOL'd by Trolltech (now a division of Nokia) back in
  2008. It is unmaintained through and through, and it is time to move
  on.

  To quote Jonathan Riddell from a mail to ubuntu-devel:
  "Qt 3 is old, unmaintained and unused by anything anyone cares about.
  It's been removed from Debian.  So I propose we remove it from Ubuntu
  too, just after an LTS is a good time to do this.  This will mean we
  are not compliant with lsb-desktop but a standard which uses obsolete
  technologies isn't any use to anyone."

  This bug will serve as a metabug for packages that either need removal
  or modifications to remove Qt3 reverse dependencies.
