TBH, we really don't know what unsupported values map to w.r.t dB.

gain field in register is Bit[5:1], so the max value of 0x1f is correct 
here. However the range of gains that it can actually support is only 0-15.

If we are artificially setting the max value of 0xf here, then somewhere 
we should ensure that Bit[5] is set to zero while programming the gain.

Whatever the mixer control is exposing is clearly reflecting what 
hardware is supporting.
