Not every 80 column warning needs fixing.

Your selection of separators is poor. For instance:

Better:

audio_info("Volume change attempted.. volume = %d new_volume = %d\n",
chip->volume, (int)ucontrol->value.integer.value[0]);

[]

Better:
if (changed ||
ucontrol->value.integer.value[0] != chip2alsa(chip->volume) {
chip->volume = alsa2chip(ucontrol->value.integer.value[0]);
changed = 1;
}

etc...
