Sigh, it didn't work, I get the following error

#alsactl restore
alsactl: set_control:805: warning: name mismatch (External Amplifier Power 
Down/Sigmatel 4-Speaker Stereo Playback Switch) for control #73
alsactl: set_control:805: warning: name mismatch (EMU10K1 PCM Send 
Routing/Sigmatel Surround Phase Inversion Playback ) for control #74
alsactl: set_control:906: bad control.74.value index

Also either way, the amp still doesn't detect an ac3 stream switch into dolby 
digital mode.

Any ideas?
