Would it be a problem if those overlapped ? There is one more value that
I skipped for now TH_1520_AON_AUDIO, that is indeed a 0. I skipped it
cause trying to turn it on/off, caused a crash in the firmware, which
stopped responding for a while. With this extra constant I would be able
to use those values as an indices, but would need to add extra code in
the driver to work around the issue.
