No, ALSAMIXER2 can't do this.

This behaviour is intentional. ALSAMIXER2 only control the volume of the 
ALSAMIXER2_MAIN_CTRL. If the MAIN_CTRL is not set, it use the first 
control in the CTRLS list.

I was working on an update to the plugin that would be able to handle 
your setup. I haven't had the time yet to clean it up and submit it. 
I'll try to do so in the short future.
