The current HDA generic parser initializes / modifies the amp values always in stereo, but this seems causing the problem on ALC3229 codec that has a few mono channel widgets: namely, these mono widgets react to actions for both channels equally.
In the driver code, we do care the mono channel and create a control only for the left channel (as defined in HD-audio spec) for such a node. When the control is updated, only the left channel value is changed. However, in the resume, the right channel value is also restored from the initial value we took as stereo, and this overwrites the left channel value. This ends up being the silent output as the right channel has been never touched and remains muted.
This patch covers the places where unconditional stereo amp accesses are done and converts to the conditional accesses.
Seem the number of amp-in vals is not only depend on widget cap mono
In your example, node 0xf is mono and has only one connection
Node 0x0f [Audio Mixer] wcaps 0x20010a: Mono Amp-In Amp-In caps: ofs=0x00, nsteps=0x00, stepsize=0x00, mute=1 Amp-In vals: [0x00] Connection: 1 0x0d
Refer to block diagram in alc272 datasheet
Node 0xf has two mute switch

7.1.3 Widget Interconnection Rules
5. When a stereo widget is an input to a mono widget, only the L-channel of the source drives the sink.
There is one exception to this rule, which allows a mono Mixer Widget to mix the L- and R-channels of a single stereo widget into a mono channel.
This exception occurs only when the sink widget is: A Mixer Widget, and Is identified as “mono,” and Contains exactly one entry in its connection list, and The single widget identified in its connection list (source) is “stereo.”
In this case, this mixer is required to have two inputs, the first being driven by the L-channel of the stereo source and the second by the R-channel.
