... and here is a fix patch for allowing more rebinds.
Give it a try.

Subject: [PATCH] ALSA: hda: Fix driver index handling at re-binding

HD-audio driver handles the multiple instances and keeps the static
index that is incremented at each probe.  This becomes a problem when
user tries to re-bind the device via sysfs multiple times; as the
device index isn't cleared unlike rmmod case, it points to the next
element at re-binding, and eventually later you can't probe any more
when it reaches to SNDRV_CARDS_MAX (usually 32).

This patch is an attempt to improve the handling at rebinding.
Instead of a static device index, now we keep a bitmap and assigns to
the first zero bit position.  At the driver remove, in return, the
bitmap slot is cleared again, so that it'll be available for the next
probe.
