Mariusz, thank you for the report. This is my fault. Sorry.

PowerMac2,1 seems to have the mute bit reversed compared to later
models, PowerMac2,2 and PowerMac4,1, which I was using for testing my
changes.

This has been fixed in a later patch that should be included in kernel
2.6.27, I believe.

Takashi, when was this (or will be) included? I sent two patches on 2008-08-25.
