Well, this assumes that the graphics driver is initialized before the audio driver, right?

Looking through nouveau drivers, even 32bit dma_bits is used for some devices, too, so a safe bid would be simply 32bit. Of course, if we have a table of DMA bits, we can use the more exact values.
I'll apply your original patch as a quick fix for now.
