ARIZONA_ASRC_RATE2 register can only have the values 8 or 9 and we don't
provide a way to set it to illegal values.

... that's what the mux positions are called and it seems nice to have consistent
naming for all similar muxes across channels and across future codecs. Like for
example to switch both muxes of a stereo input you set them both to the same
position name (both "A" or both "B") is clearer, and quicker to spot in a dump
of ALSA control settings, than having the two muxes set to different enumeration
strings that actually mean the same mux position.
