'Analog Mix' and 'Mic' are either/both a playback cap on some codecs
or/and a capture cap on others, therefore it is impossible to set the
mixer element control correctly for all codecs and guarantee there won't
be a feedback loop resulting in a "loud screech".

One might complain that this limitation is problematic, but the fact of
the matter is that until we have mixer setting capabilities hooked from
udev, we cannot take this hammer approach of setting unmute/cap for
'Analog Mix' and 'Mic'.
