Okay, I've not looked at the specs for the AD1985 at all or looked into what other folks are doing regarding custom initialization patches for it.  We don't have any code in the tree at present that is likely to help.  A similar patch to Oleg's submission for the AD1980 might be applicable, but that's not in the tree today (still thinking about some general issues arising relating to this).

As a potential short term fix you might check that moving the "monitor" gain right up doesn't improve the situation.
