Oops, looks like something didn't patch right.  I'll use a unified diff

Yes, that should do exactly what Manuel's hack in *_mixer.c did before.
Also, if your codec supports it, the DAC/ADC attentuation controls
should also be there.  Removing codec hacks from the aureal driver and
letting the generic ac97 support in alsa handle them seems like a better
idea to me, since this driver will eventually be integrated with the
alsa tree.
