Commit ef5dbbcc removes the default initialization of init_amp to ALC_INIT_DEFAULT, with the justification that it should be set by alc_subsystem_id, which contains a switch case:
tmp = (ass & 0x38) >> 3; /* external Amp control */ switch (tmp) { case 1:
... case 5: }
Which handles values 1,3,7 for GPIOs, or 5 to set _DEFAULT.
But... what if it's 0? :)
I got a bug report this morning from a user whose sound had broken between 2.6.34 and 2.6.35, and I bisected it down to this commit.
[ 32.366183] ALSA sound/pci/hda/patch_realtek.c:1374: realtek: Enabling init ASM_ID=0x8a05 CODEC_ID=10ec0888
(0x8a05 & 0x38) >> 3 = 0;
But otherwise the SKU looks fine (since if I revert that commit, it seems to work correctly.)
I think the best thing to do would be to either restore the 'redundant' default initialization, or quirk it.

How about setting default to ALC_INIT_DEFAULT instead like the patch below? This is safer than forcing ALC_INIT_DEFAULT to all, I suppose.
thanks,
