That's my bad. I haven't tested much, and unfortunately, 1.0.14rc3
was released while I've been in vacation soon after the wrong patch.
The fix patch below is already on my local tree, but it couldn't be
pushed because the ALSA HG tree is currently down (I guess Jaroslav is
working on his server). If needed, we'll release the fixed version.
So stay tuned.

Fix NULL dereference with null modelname
Fix the NULL dereference of modelname option. The check is moved to
find_codec_preset() now, too.
