The problem is rather that "Master Front" is a misleading name.
"Master Front" volume control exists for other VIA codecs because there
is another "Front" volume that is assigned to a pin widget.
So, this "Master" isn't really a master control.
IMO, a better way would be to rename this "Master Front" to either a
pin-specific one ("Speaker", etc), and make a vmaster control to bind
both this and headphone controls, like other codecs.
I'm going to try to implement it...
thanks,
Takashi
