Hello, As i can't reach bugtracker (is it down, or problem on my side?), i'll post here. Though there is already few open bugs there i saw. I just found temp solution.

Bug itslef: After updating to greater version of kernel than 3.1.6 speakers stoped working anymore on most vaio z and similar models, though there is still sound through headphones. (ithere are a lot of people reporting it on different distro bug trackers and forums as well) My specific cards are

00:1b.0 Audio device: Intel Corporation 5 Series/3400 Series Chipset High Definition Audio (rev 05) 01:00.1 Audio device: NVIDIA Corporation High Definition Audio Controller (rev ff)

The only solution was to use model=generic, but than most of features wouldn't work.(plugin jack automute, missing most settings in alsamixer).

Solution: And as bug was reported for a long time, i waited through kernel updates to fix it. But yesterday as i updated to 3.5 it was still there. And as 3.5 has fewer models for [ALC882/883/885/888/889], as my card is ALC889 i just tried all 3 of them, and it seems everyting working when setting model=acer-aspire-8930g (cant and didn't try HDMI out).

But the problem is that it still not that obvious for people with other than acer laptops to set this as model, as well as before (<3.1.6) it worked out-of-box with not model setting at all.

thanks, Michael Ketslah. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe alsa-devel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
