Thanks for your patch.

The concern is whether you lose any functionality by this rename.
The support of the volume knob control with the existing F1734 model
would be easy.  You'd need to add a proper verb to enable the
unsolicited event and register the handler, such as, uniwill_p53 one.

Using 6stack_capture_source looks wrong to me.  It is actually for
desktops.  But yours isn't, I guess.

The recording quality might be improved by setting the proper pin VREF
level.

Anyway, it'd be more helpful if you can show the detailed information,
e.g. the output of alsa-info.sh script.
