Comment:

 This is an ALSA bug. ALSA devs have stated that they want all hardware to
 provide a "Master" mixer.

 You should try the latest version of the alsa drivers (1.0.18rc3) to see
 if this is fixed and if not, report it to the ALSA folks via their mailing
 list (their bug tracker is a black hole so don't touch it!)

 You should include the output from amixer -c 0 when you report it to them,
 as well as the relevant line from {{{lspci -nn}}} for your audio hardware.

 FWIW, you may have more success without your patch if you set {{{default-
 sample-channels=6}}} in your {{{/etc/pulse/daemon.conf}}}
