Hm, if it's *so* loud, we should have a mixer control for this, I guess.
It's not *so* loud, but yea I appreciate a mixer for it yes! at least I can tell which speaker is working and also I can listen to Music without bothering someone else because with LFE the base is loud..
OK, how about the patch below?
> Do you have any suggestion on how to enable the right speaker?
No, already out of idea... I wonder whether any other people suffering from the same problem?
Julien has the same PC, same OS, same Kernel, same BIOS Version, but the weird thing is that he is not suffering from this problem, which obviously led me to beleive a hardware defect, but it's working on Windows!
This is really weird...

Because the patch is not attached, I can't quite copy it correctly from Gmail,
You have a pull-down menu at the top-right corner of each mail in gmail. There you can choose "Show original". This will show the raw texts so that you can save it from the browser.
Possibly this menu item appears only in English language mode, though.
I have this and that's what I used earlier but it failed on many hunks, now
it only failed on one, the last hunk, so I applied the last one by hand
Maybe you aren't using the very latest alsa-driver code?
so I did it by hand (attached), I applied it but I don't see the mixer anywhere in alsamixer. I double checked the patch though...
I revised the patch. Attached below. Try it instead. You'll have "Bass Speaker" mixer switch, maybe at the most right side.

Thank you, this patch works indeed, I can enable/disable the LFE as I like now, Thank you so much !!
Why do you think the drivers needed special GPIO settings while another PC, same PC didn't need anything, BIOS BUG or maybe hardware defect?
Well, the question is whether this bass effect wasn't used on any HP dv laptops at all until yet, or it was already enabled as default.
As I have no hardware itself, I really have no idea about it... Can anyone tell whether the bass was enabled already?
thanks,
Takashi
