[alsa-devel] [REGRESSION] Headphones no longer working on MacPro6, 1 with 4.4
Hi, We received a bug report https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1316119 that the headphone jack on a MacPro6,1 stopped working on an upgrade from 4.3 to 4.4. The bugzilla has the alsainfo, diffing shows that the Amp-Out vals are different. I tried a revert of 9f660a1c4 (" ALSA: hda/realtek - Fix silent headphone output on MacPro 4,1 (v2)") but that didn't help. Any ideas before asking for a bisect? Does this hardware version need to have the vref fixup as well? Thanks, Laura

The obvious difference is the power state of each node. The recent kernel has the finer power saving mode, and this might be the cause -- Mac has some secret that requires some node to be powered up. Try to power on each node via hda-verb. For example, to power up the node 0x05, run like: hda-verb /dev/snd/hwC0D0 0x05 SET_POWER 0x01 And check whether it makes any difference. Similarly, try for nodes 0x06, 0x08, 0x09, 0x0a, 0x0b, 0x0c, 0x0d, 0x0f, 0x10, 0x11, 0x14, 0x15, 0x16, 0x17, 0x18. thanks, Takashi

Oops, a typo: the last argument must be 0x00, corresponding to D0: hda-verb /dev/snd/hwC0D0 0x05 SET_POWER 0x00 Takashi

Bringing this back again, the command that makes it work is hda-verb /dev/snd/hwC0D0 0x10 SET_POWER 0x00 And this is still needed as of 4.5.4

OK, then please give alsa-info.sh output (run with --no-upload option) at both working and non-working cases.
And this is still needed as of 4.5.4
Of course, nothing has changed. I didn't hear from you since my previous question... I'll start checking this later in in the next week. thanks, Takashi

Wait, some relevant changes have been merged in 4.6. Please check 4.6 at first to be sure. Then give alsa-info.sh outputs. Takashi

I'm assuming you were referring to de3df8a986b6 ("ALSA: hda - Keep powering up ADCs on Cirrus codecs") and 50fd4987c4f3 ("ALSA: hda - Don't trust the reported actual power state"). These were available in the 4.4.5 stable tree but the problem still persists with that tree. alsa-info is attached.

According to the reporter: "Actually, that information was when the headphones were plugged in, but the detection is incorrect. (Linux thinks the headphones are unplugged, when they are actually plugged in." Thanks, Laura

According to the reporter:
"Actually, that information was when the headphones were plugged in, but the detection is incorrect. (Linux thinks the headphones are unplugged, when they are actually plugged in."
It implies that the pin setup mismatches with the actual hardware. You need to figure out which pin corresponds to the actual I/O by yourself, e.g. via hdajackretask or other tool. The apparent regression just revealed the already buggy setup. Takashi
