[Bug 420578] [NEW] SSV 0x103c needs cap at 0 dB offset for CX20551 (Waikiki)

Binary package hint: pulseaudio

When pulseaudio is running, it forces my "PCM" volume (as seen in
"alsamixer") to 100%.

This is not acceptable, since my (laptop) speakers sound terrible unless
the PCM volume is turned down.

I tried following the instructions in bug 410446 to stop pulseaudio,
reset my mixer settings (also tried "alsactl store 0" to save them), and
restart pulseaudio. But the PCM volume always goes back to 100% as soon
as pulseaudio restarts.

I have used several Ubuntu releases before Karmic, and none have had
this problem.
