Hm, I expected more exotic control that failed, but it was Mic Capture
Switch, which should be treated normally.

Could you try the patch below?  This will still show other warning
messages, but it'll forcibly initialize the mixer elements at probe
time, and the rest should work.

Once after it's confirmed to work, we may shut up the device warnings
with a quirk.


thanks,

Takashi
