The current PS3 sound driver in this repo has no builtin software
attenuator.

For the hardwares which has no hardware attenuator, these drivers are supposed
to use softvol plugin in ALSA framework.

The following is a sample configuration file for the PS3 sound driver.
Please place it as /etc/alsa/cards/PS3.conf (the pathname depends on
your distro).
