[pulseaudio-discuss] [PATCH] alsa-mixer: Support for Creative SoundBlaster Omni Surround 5.1 USB sound card with latest firmware

[Nazar Mokrynskyi]

`Mic` is now detected as `Mic-In/Mic Array` (there are 2 microphones physically, nice to se this being understood).
`Line` is now detected as `Line In`.
Removed all output modes except officially supported stereo, 5.1 and stereo S/PDIF.
Also microphone/line in now might be used simultaneously with either output mode, yay!
