Well the main PCI and DEVICE id's should be listed in the PCI_DEVICE table, the SUBSYS ID should only be added in case there can be different drivers based on that ID. As far as the ID 1432:7728, that one was send by Xose who got the ID from the Windows driver, I don't know if he has mistakenly grabbed the subsystem ID or not... Xose, could you give an update about this?
