the answer was aleady stated in the patch

you need to change alsa-mixer.h

-pa_channel_position_mask_t masks[SND_MIXER_SCHN_LAST][2];
+pa_channel_position_mask_t masks[SND_MIXER_SCHN_LAST][8];


and


-  if (e->n_channels > 2) {
+ if (e->n_channels > 8) {

Title:
  "Volume element PCM has 6 channels. That's too much!" - PA doesn't
  support elements with more than two channels

Status in pulseaudio package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  When connecting the Terratec PHASE26 in 16/48 mode (6 channels) I get the 
error "Volume element PCM has 6 channels. That's too much! I can't handle 
that!"  and the card fails to show up in Sound Settings.
  Everything is fine with 24/48 mode (2 channels).
