sound on dual G4 powermac

[Paul Mackerras]

I have been using this patch in 2.5/2.6 kernels on my dual G4 powermac
for some time.  Without it, I get no sound at all, even after
unmuting.  I don't know exactly why this fixes it, but this is what I
came up with in the process of doing a binary search between a kernel
that worked and one that didn't.

Paul.
