Could you try sound-unstable tree a bit later again? I found a bug in my patch, and fixed and updated GIT tree now. At least, the headphone plugging should work now.
The mic auto-detection still doesn't work with model=auto, though. So, I'm going to take your patch anyway later. But I just wanted to be sure that the current tree could work somehow better...
Hi,
I just updated and tried the current tree; still no sound/headphone output. :(
Ok, I believe I've made some progress on this. The problem appears to be related to the autoconfig handling of the line out nids. The current code ends up with something like the following:
ALSA sound/pci/hda/hda_codec.c:3833: autoconfig: line_outs=1 (0x17/0x0/0x0/0x0/0x0) ALSA sound/pci/hda/hda_codec.c:3837: speaker_outs=0 (0x0/0x0/0x0/0x0/0x0) ALSA sound/pci/hda/hda_codec.c:3841: hp_outs=1 (0x21/0x0/0x0/0x0/0x0) ALSA sound/pci/hda/hda_codec.c:3842: mono: mono_out=0x0 ALSA sound/pci/hda/hda_codec.c:3853: inputs: mic=0x18, fmic=0x19, line=0x0, fline=0x0, cd=0x0, aux=0x0
However, NID 0x17 is actually a speaker_out. The code that checks for line_outs in snd_hda_parse_pin_def_config() unsets the speaker_out and uses that NID for a line_out. For whatever reason, this breaks things (no sound output, no headphone out).
That's intentional, and the driver checks that case, too. Please check the latest sound git tree and see the kernel message. You should have messages like "realtek: ..."
Takashi
The realtek: lines don't appear to affect NID 0x17 at all. Instead, they say:
ALSA sound/pci/hda/patch_realtek.c:1154: realtek: No valid SSID, checking pincfg 0x40178e2d for NID 0x1d ALSA sound/pci/hda/patch_realtek.c:1170: realtek: Enabling init ASM_ID=0x8e2d CODEC_ID=10ec0272 ALSA sound/pci/hda/patch_realtek.c:1111: realtek: Enable HP auto-muting on NID 0x21
And, as I said, I get no sound output with this..
