From the official (non-service) manual, page 309:
Audio High Definition Audio 3D Enhanced Sound System S/PDIF Digital Output Built-In Microphone THX TruStudio Pro 7.1CH Audio output supported by headphone, microphone, S/PDIF & Line- In Jack Models A & B: 2 Built-In Speakers and One Sub Woofer Model C: 5 Built-In Speakers and One Sub Woofer
Model A is P150HM, and model C is P170HM.
Refer to P170HM 's photo in user manual
There are 3 speakers and a subwoofer at the bottom of the laptop and two speakers at the top
Refer to user manual of P150HM,
Plug the front speaker cables into the Headphone-Out Jack.
• Line-In Jack = Rear Speaker Out • Microphone-In Jack = Center/Subwoofer Speaker Out • S/PDIF-Out Jack = Side Speaker Out (for 7.1 Surround Sound Only)
You may need to ask Takashi , David, PA developers and Media controller developers how to handle this case
since it may need to set_pin_ctl to PIN_HP and PIN_OUT of 0x1b and retasking of input jacks as output whether PA or Media controller API expect to change the name of the volume control and switch from "Headphone" to "Front" by hda-reconfig

- As you plug in each cable a dialog box will pop up (see “Auto Popup
Dialog” on page 2 - 9).
Auto Popup Dialog mean support jack detect
you can try David's hda-jack-sense-test.py
Yes, it is working: [julas@snowball2 ~]$ sudo python hda-jack-sense-test.py Pin 0x18 (Black Mic): present = No Pin 0x1a (Black Line In): present = No Pin 0x1b (Black HP Out): present = Yes [julas@snowball2 ~]$ sudo python hda-jack-sense-test.py Pin 0x18 (Black Mic): present = No Pin 0x1a (Black Line In): present = No Pin 0x1b (Black HP Out): present = No [julas@snowball2 ~]$ sudo python hda-jack-sense-test.py Pin 0x18 (Black Mic): present = No Pin 0x1a (Black Line In): present = Yes Pin 0x1b (Black HP Out): present = No [julas@snowball2 ~]$ sudo python hda-jack-sense-test.py Pin 0x18 (Black Mic): present = Yes Pin 0x1a (Black Line In): present = No Pin 0x1b (Black HP Out): present = No
Is Node 0x17 also the side jack of your p150hm ? pin cap support Detect and Trigger but Misc = NO_PRESENCE
Yes, it is between mic and line in jacks, third one from the front. The only difference is that there is red light coming out of it.
you can use hda-verb to set the pin default of 0x17 and use hda-jack-sense-test retest the side jack
The red light is due to you turn "IEC958 Default PCM" on since this switch copy the signal to digital out
If you don't use SPDIF, may need to turn off this switch to turn off red light and save power for your notebook

SImilar case are those notebooks hda-emu/codecs/alc1200-msi-gx620 which has 1 hp(green), 1 line-in(blue), 1 ext-mic(pink) and 1 line out(grey) at same location (ext rear) for surround71 (and also 1 speakers, 1 int mic)

get 1
1 Channel Mode:0 ITEM: 0:2ch, 1:4ch, 2:6ch, VAL: [2ch]
what is missing are 1) 8ch in "Channel Mode" , 2) Side Playback Volume 3)Side Playback Switch
Study the logic to add 8ch and "side" in
1) alc_auto_fill_dac_nids() 2) alc_auto_fill_multi_ios() which add line-in and mic jack to multi_ios,
This mean that when switch to 6/8 channel mode, it will conflict with automic detection since the pin cap alc892 's mic jack does not support impedance sense and the driver does not know the plug is mic or speaker by measuring the impedance
The driver have to disable automic detection when user switch "channel mode" to 6ch/8ch as the user should still able to use the internal mic when the external mic jack is retasked as output
which node is your subwoofer ?
This I have not figured out yet unfortunately. Keep in mind that in windows you need THX TruStudio PRO to get it working, and the config is advertised as stereo. There was a discussion about this on notebookreview forums [1], so maybe it configured in some weird way?
you have to find out whether subwoofer is connected to 0x16 of your p150hm since your mic jack (retasked as clfe) is connected to dac 0x4.
