I also tried merging sound-2.6/master with Linus's tree, but this also did not help.
It's really strange. Are you sure that this is the kernel you modified properly? Before further debugging, check two things:
- Run "git log sound/pci/hda/patch_realtek.c" and the first few entries, whether they come from sound git tree. For example, check the commit below is contained:

ALSA: hda - Fix volume-init for ALC259 with invalid widget caps
- Confirm the running kernel is what you really built and installed. You can modify the suffix via $CONFIG_LOCALVERSION in .config file. Name it uniquely, rebuild, re-install and reboot. The new suffix should appear in the output of "uname -r".
- Once when these are correct, check /proc/asound/card0/codec#0: the widget NID 0x02 should contain "Speaker Playback Volume" instead of "Headphone Playback Volume" with the latest driver.
