Yes, absolutely. Not only for the PCMA/B Mixer Volume Control but also
for the two other volume controls that were modified by your commit.
I'll try to get back to your commit (without my revert) to verify once

Hum, ok, but I don't believe this should affect the range of values
that alsamixer sees, but only the fact that you're not using the full
range of volumes available at the codec level, right?
