I stumbled over this a while ago and believe this should work differently:

Consider this:
mumble.conf in /usr/lib/sasl2/ and /etc/sasl/.

Currently, if mumble.conf is found in /usr/lib/sasl2/ it will be used instead
of /etc/sasl/.

I believe it should it be the other way around. If mumble.conf is found in
/etc/sasl/ it takes precedence over /usr/lib/sasl2/mumble.conf.
/usr/lib/sasl2/, to me, is the (old) default and fallback dir.
