Use "Independent HP" just because patch_via.c already used it so it
is
better to use a standard name for all hda codecs
Yeah, I know. But this name is confusing, so better to change in patch_via.c as well.

To force pulseaudio to get the correct subdevice for via codec, you may
need
to add "subdevice 0" to HDA-intel.conf
since subdevice 0 support multichannel but subdevice 1 only support
stereo
playback.pcm { type softvol slave.pcm { type hw card $CARD
subdevice 0 } control { name "PCM Playback Volume" card $CARD }OK, fixed now. Thanks.

But dmix still fail and you cannot use dmix with subdevice 1
Please elaborate. You can use dmix with subdevice 1 when you write your own config. "front" definition is not for other but the primary device. It's no definition for every output device.
I'd name it differently, e.g. "Headphone Stream Mode" taking "Slave" and
"Independent", or such. An enum with "ON" and "OFF" is no sensible choice.
The main point is how can the user find out which subdevice or device is used for "Headphone Stream"
Neither "aplay -l " nor "aplay -L' provide any useful information to the user
Yeah, because there is no standard definition for such streams. We need to start from defining it at first.
