Hi,
We received a bug report https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1316119 that the headphone jack on a MacPro6,1 stopped working on an upgrade from 4.3 to 4.4.
The bugzilla has the alsainfo, diffing shows that the Amp-Out vals are different. I tried a revert of 9f660a1c4 (" ALSA: hda/realtek - Fix silent headphone output on MacPro 4,1 (v2)") but that didn't help.
Any ideas before asking for a bisect? Does this hardware version need to have the vref fixup as well?
The obvious difference is the power state of each node. The recent kernel has the finer power saving mode, and this might be the cause -- Mac has some secret that requires some node to be powered up.
Try to power on each node via hda-verb. For example, to power up the node 0x05, run like: hda-verb /dev/snd/hwC0D0 0x05 SET_POWER 0x01
And check whether it makes any difference. Similarly, try for nodes 0x06, 0x08, 0x09, 0x0a, 0x0b, 0x0c, 0x0d, 0x0f, 0x10, 0x11, 0x14, 0x15, 0x16, 0x17, 0x18.
thanks,
Takashi
