The codec bus keepers (which these properties exist to support) only
need to be configured on one codec for the left and one codec for the
right. We use the "main" L and R woofer codecs for this purpose, so
the extension of the properties like this allows us to specify which
codec's bus keeper should be set up, as we need to support machines
with 6, 4, 2 and 1 speaker(s).
