This is a loopback mixer element, it has nothing to do with capture stream.
The likely culprit of the static noises is the signal from the analog loopback. In some cases, you can disable the whole loopback via "Loopback Mixing" mixer element on the fly. In some cases, you'd need to disable each mixer input (e.g. "Mic Playback Switch"). In some cases (e.g. on some Sony and Dell laptops), you'd need to disable the complete analog loopback at the initialization.
The last one can be done via the early patching or sysfs reconfiguration, pass "mixer_nid = 0" hint. See HD-Audio.txt for a brief instruction.
Sadly, that did not help.
Give alsa-info.sh output after your change to verify whether you did correctly.
Here it is, cheers:
Thanks. The setup looks OK, the path is: DAC (0x02) -> mixer (0x0c) -> mixer (0x14) and the mixer mutes the loopback path (index 1).
Is it the state where you still hear the static noise?
Yes, the alsa-info.sh script was executed, while hearing the static noise.
Also, what if you use the module option for snd-hda-intel model=nofixup or model=generic?
That did not change anything either. Passing the "mixer_nid = 0" hint also did not get rid of the static noise, when loading snd-hda-intel with model=nofixup resp. model=generic.
