What is the actual problem you are trying to solve here? It's not
What I am trying to solve, is the problem that people have with my snd-pcsp driver. Pulseaudio uses "hw" to bypass some pcm plugins, and then people are left with the non-functional softvol control, and they blame my driver. I am looking for the way to mandate the softvol plugin even for the "hw" device.
Why not work on fixing the actual problem if it's not already been fixed? I'm not clear from your description what that actually is but it would seem much more generally useful to fix that. This is far from the only card with no hardware volume control and I'd imagine all will be affected.
Is this possible?
No, and it would still be unhelpful since it would leave you with two soft volume controls in operation.
