[pulseaudio-discuss] [PATCH v2 5/5] alsa-mixer: Improve volume handling for Terratec Aureon Dual USB

This card can be used in analog or digital mode, and in the digital
mode there's no hardware volume or mute support. With the default
configuration PulseAudio only sees a single "speaker" port, and
assumes that controlling the Speaker element has some effect, which
is not true in the digital mode. To work around this, let's add a
special path configuration for this card to disable hardware volume.
It would be better to disable hardware volume only in the digital
mode, but I believe there's no way to automatically figure out which
mode is in use, and requiring the user to tell which mode is in use
at any given time would not be user-friendly.
