It worked as soon as I turned of those 'Sense' mixers. The problem was
with the defaults chosen when upgrading from 2.6.10 to 2.6.11 (tweaking
was required to restore functionality).

Takashi Iwai mentioned a patch not yet in mainline that was supposed to
fix this. I didn't actually test that patch but since the matter was
looked into it was enough for me.
