The defaults didn't detect the correct volume capabilities. I have
a loopback alsa device (virtual sound card) that competes with the
thinkpad_ec for the index number. The default left the alsa
interface disabled, but the tpacpi kernel docs said that was the
preferred interface... So, yeah. I started with defaults and
automatic detection, but these settings are an improvement.
