the new configuration file is already in alsa-lib cvs tree.
please get the latest alsa-lib cvs and install the config files.

the difference from the former version is that the new driver uses a
different channel for SPDIF and has a new mixer control.

i'm not sure whether the analog volumes have influence upon the spdif
digital levels.  anyway, please give a try.
