I could rework it to pass a list of connected status' and the number
of elements instead, but it wouldn't work well for situations where
the number of channels on the kcontrol != the number of paths. I'm not
sure if that's even a valid setup, but it does work with the current
core code.

On the other hand, are there kcontrols that are multi-channel
(> 2 channels)?

I'm inclined to just fixup the comment to make it clear that the
implementation supports stereo, i.e. 2 channels, only.

Agreed. I'll put a check and warning before it.

Thanks for the review!
