Does this happen even with the latest alsa-driver snapshot? ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/tiwai/snapshot/alsa-driver-snapshot.tar.gz

I installed the snapshot, and it has some good things and some bad things. --Good new things -The loudspeakers work correctly on boot. -The headphones jack sense works, and mutes the loudspeakers when I insert headphones.
--Bad new things -The headphones don't provide any sound (regression with respect to 1.0.20), I put all the bars to maximum, but no luck.
Do you think I can activate the headphones with hda-verb?
Better run alsa-info.sh (with --no-upload option) on both 1.0.20 and the latest snapshot, and attach the generated files.
The regression is likely because of my latest change (merging alc882 and alc883 parsers). Earlier is easier to fix :)
thanks,
Takashi
Attached alsa info from yesterday's snapshot, todays, and 1.0.20 (vanilla, without my patch). The volume levels are not exactly the same; I can redo them if you want. Headphones are still muted in today's snapshot.

Hm, I don't see any significant problem there.
The headphone routing should be from 0x02 -> 0x0c -> 0x15. Try to adjust these widgets via hda-verb.
Also, you can try model=auto. Does it work somehow?

In addition, try the following:
- Use alsa-driver-20090630 tarball (grab this one before vanishing :) This one contains the driver before alc882/883 merging. So good to know whether this works or not.
- Try model=acer-aspire-6350g instead.

I tested the snapshot for today (03/07/09) and everything works perfectly. I think the headphones were acting funny yesterday, since the snapshot for 30/06 works perfectly as well. I am positive 1.0.20 does not work, so the fix is somewhere in between. Thanks to all for their great work!
I also need somebody to mark https://bugtrack.alsa-project.org/alsa-bug/view.php?id=4261 as resolved fixed. I can't close it, since the reporter is somebody else, who seems to have disappeared.

Good to hear. I wondered what I broke :) Thanks for testing.
