It may make sense to change it to IFACE_PCM indeed as neither
alsamixer nor amixer can't refer these values properly.
These controls are provided for dedicated mixer apps, so basically it
shouldn't be a problem to use IFACE_PCM.

As looking at the current situation that there is still no proper
mixer app for vt1724, we can redesign this mixer interface
completely...
