Yes, I just tried it by compiling alsa-driver-1.0.20 after applying
the patch you provided, and I can happily say that it works beautifully.

Thank you so much! I really hope that this patch will be included in
the next ALSA release and the next -rc release for 2.6.30.

That clears up a lot of things. I am sorry if this was already documented
in the ALSA documentation/wiki and I missed it.
