Yes, because that lists the available devices. You have to configure it in
console.conf in order to be able to dial it. If you haven't configured a
thing named "dmix" in console.conf, then it's not going to work.

"console list available" show available devices that you can use in the
configuration
"console list devices" show what is actually configured
