Good question. I guess it depends on how we look upon kcontrol indices 
in general.

PulseAudio never picks anything up if it has an index, therefore it 
becomes a real problem/bug for users. (Not sure if one could argue that 
this is a problem in PulseAudio rather than the kernel. Haven't thought 
that through.)

OTOH, if the reasoning is that you would break custom made scripts that 
depend on this index, i e it becomes a change of behaviour.

To be pragmatic about it, the chances that people are depending on this 
index being non-zero are probably very low, so I don't mind sending this 
one to stable.
