Please try a version of the driver from current kernel versions (you'll
probably need a little backporting). I do not recommend using
alsa-driver for any embedded audio work, there are usually
interdependencies with CPU code in the CPU sides of the drivers.

This looks like a potential issue, yes. Have you tried testing?

Without looking at the driver version you're using I'm not 100% certain
but I believe both of these are controls for mixers. Mixers controls
have the name of the mixer prepended to thekm when presented to the API.
