I see. In this case, the auto-route settings should differ from the mixer
settings. So the mute flag should be logical _OR_ from both DAPM and the mixer
settings. And because the codec is able to do the hw mute, why to prevent the
export of this feature?

So I propose do do (pseudo code):

struct rt711_sdca_priv {
	bool fu0f_dapm_mute;
	bool fu0f_mixer_mute;
};

/* called from both dapm event and kontrol put callback (on change) */
/* the dapm event and put callback will modify only rt711_sdca_priv fields */
static void set_f0f_mute(rt711_priv)
{
	int mute = rt711_priv->fu0f_dapm_mute || rt711_priv->fu0f_mixer_mute;
	set_fu0f_mute_register(mute);
}

With this implementation, all is consistent to the user space.

Yes, but the hw controls should be used instead DSP controls, if they are
available.
