That is not actually correct. The intention of the patch was to add support for (at least some) half-duplex devices; for me, these were snd_usb_audio, but they may be anything that only has a Mic control without a Master. My snd_usb_audio card is card 0; I configured it explicitly to become that because at the moment WINE assumes that you want to use the first device initialized (the rest of my patchset needs some other tweaks before commit, so current git HEAD actually will usually only initialize one card in a usable fashion anyway).
If your card 0 only has capture pcm and volume control, do you mean that wine select alsa card 1 as the preferred playback device ?
are you using alsa-pulse or dmix as your ALSA "default" device ?
can you post the output of
WINEDEBUG=+mixer wine winecfg
