[Bug 893210]

 

MASTER VOLUME REGISTER  Index 0x02

 This register controls the Line_Out volume controls for both stereo
channels and the mute bit. Each volume subregister contains five bits,
generating 32 volume levels with 31 steps of 1.5 dB each. Because AC ’97
defines 6-bit volume registers, to maintain compatibility whenever the
D5 or D13 bits are set to 1, their respective lower five volume bits are
automatically set to 1 by the codec logic. On readback, all lower five
bits read 1s whenever these bits are set to 1. Refer to Table 12 for
examples.

this is quite different from those virtual master of hda codecs
