I'm not sure this is really a routing or widget problem. Problem is that
if the muxed inputs are analogue we need to provide separate ALSA controls
for the left and right mux because it is allowed to use them as two
independant mono channels with separate muxing. But if they are
configured as digital the mux controls are ganged so must be set the
same. I don't feel good about registering a single mux control if its
digital and two if its analogue because that means the codec's control
list depends on a pdata option. I could implement the control pair
so that if the input is digital changing one control always changes
the other so they will always be forced to the same setting. Any
better options?

Agreed, probably a legacy of an earlier implementation that's now redundant.
