I have read the whole thread and I have the same exact problem of recording with a realtek ALC861 codec on a ATI chipset board. My harddisk controller is also using sata_sil module. I have this problem for a long time too. Would the same patch solve the problem for me as well?
Well, the patch does have effect only when you enable MSI. And, MSI is disabled on many ATI chipsets as default unless you patch the kernel. I suggest it just to check whether any unknown IRQs are issued or the hardware is just screwed up.
It looks like this is a generic problem of ATI SB chipset. Which model is it? SB450, SB460 or SB600?

BTW, do you have problems found in below? https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=297703
According to the reporter, nc6400 with AD1981 has a problem with headphone jack auto-muting and with the non-linear master volume.
I supplied two test patches there.
For convenience, I attach patches here.
Hi, I had no time to test your first patch (this one which check if irq handler is called), I've only tested it for a while (working on MSI turned on, sometimes hard locks my laptop).
I also have similiar problems with automute, and non-linear master volume control.
Without automute patch, automute works from time to time. With your patch applied to latest git it works all the time, until the recording breaks. When it happens I have sound only in headphones, but not in internal speaker. Pluging and unpluging HP doesn't help, only reloading hda-intel fixes problem. Assuming, your automute patch is ok, but it helps me only until mic breaks.
OK, this patch is now on HG tree.
Without ad1981-hp-master-amp-fix muting (muting=disabling it, not making it's value equal 0) "Master" and "PCM" control works ok. Decrementing Master and PCM controls to 0 is possible, but after that I can hear very quiet output from internal speakers. With your patch (ad1981-hp-master-amp-fix) applied to latest git I can't decrement Master control to 0 (I can do that with PCM, but behavior is same as described upper). I can only decrement it to value 3, and when I press down key (in alsamixer) to step to lower level of loudness, it's switching to value 103. When Master has 103 value I can hear very quiet output from internal speakers and HP (if plugged).
The patch will change only the behavior of Master control. PCM should be as same as before.
What "value" are you referring in the above context? Is it a raw mixer value, percent or dB, or the codec amp value?
Maybe we need to make clear how the master volume control behaves. According to the original bug reporter, the master volume behaves like below:
- from 0% to 49% sounds are still audible, and the volume doesn't change at all
- from 50% to 100% sounds get louder normally
How about yours?
