It looks to me like a good place to put this info is in the "user notes" attached to the ALSA sound card matrix: visit http://www.alsa-project.org/alsa-doc/ find matrix line for your card, click "details" click "user contributed notes" click "ADD". Sure I could do it myself but it's not my info, I don't even have this kind of sound card. There is also a WIKI for ALSA soundcard HOWTOs at http://alsa.opensrc.org/index.php?page=AlsaOpensrcOrg but it looks to me like it is less active recently.
