I've fixed it and will get it upstream in another email, thanks.

I'll add that to the code for now.

No, because it wouldn't work.  When snd-hda-intel loads, it looks at the
codecs on the bus (there can be 16), and determines the vendor and
model.  It then looks at the tables to see if that vendor/model is
listed (each of the patch_*.c files has their own table at the end of
the file).  If a correct entry is found, the table tells the driver
which patch to use, and each patch has different configuration
definitions.
The patch looks at it's own table to match your pci subsystem ID so that
it can load the correct settings for your motherboard.  If your
subsystem ID isn't listed, then the driver will revert to "auto" mode.

Hope that explanation helps.

As to a Master Volume, I can look into adding it if you'd be willing to
give it a test run.  I'll need one piece of output from your system,
though.  Type "cat /proc/asound/version /proc/asound/card0/codec*
>Asus-p5W-codec.out" and send it to me.

I won't be able to get to it until next week at the earliest, but maybe
we can get it working.
