Yes.  The ABI fortunately always allows that sort of cross effect as we
have devices where similar controls affect some but not all channels on
a device, or different types of channel, but still not all channels.
Our fairly simple hierarchical sharing scheme never describes those.

Here we will have to take advantage of that being allowed even though
the driver should have had these shared in the first place :(
