[alsa-devel] Acer Aspire 8920g / snd-hda-intel / ALC889
Hi folks -
I have a new 8920g on Fedora development running 2.6.25 which has
$ cat /proc/asound/version Advanced Linux Sound Architecture Driver Version 1.0.16rc2 (Thu Jan 31 16:40:16 2008 UTC).
I get a decent looking set of alsa things in /proc/asound
$ cat /proc/asound/cards 0 [Intel ]: HDA-Intel - HDA Intel HDA Intel at 0xfc300000 irq 22
and dmesg says that model=acer was selected reasonably enough.
I can play audio down the logical sound devices, including cat /dev/urandom > /dev/dsp and the interrupt count goes up in /proc/interrupts.
Alsamixer shows a bunch of things and I twiddled them all to no avail. There has never been even a click from the speakers or headphone jack on this machine.
At least three funnies on this machine:
1) It is confused if it has ALC889 or ALC883 in there

2) from dmesg

3) there is a funny embedded capacitive volume control thing on this device, whether it gates output by itself or is just a bunch of special keyboard keys, I dunno.
Any ideas, more information needed?

First of all, do you need to pass model=acer at all?

This doesn't matter. ALC889 is compatible with ALC883, and the driver uses the same string inside.

alsa-info.sh (found in www.alsa-project.org debug page) would give more detailed debug information. Please show that output.

No, the auto thing detects it as acer and reports in dmesg that it has selected acer. Currently I forced it anyway in /etc/modprobe.conf to acer as part of running around trying everything I could imagine.

I guess the correct model is rather acer-aspire. Try it instead.

The setting looks OK otherwise. BTW, it'd be better to show the contents in the post at the next time.

Hi -

I did try this, it did change the alsamixer stuff a bit and made more complaints in dmesg, but didn't change the silence situation.

Hi -
selected acer. Currently I forced it anyway in /etc/modprobe.conf to acer as part of running around trying everything I could imagine.
I guess the correct model is rather acer-aspire. Try it instead.
I did try this, it did change the alsamixer stuff a bit and made more complaints in dmesg,
They are no complains but just positive information.
but didn't change the silence situation.
Hm, then the problem is somewhere different. You hear neither from speaker nor HP-jack?

OK.

Nothing, despite changing settings "headphone" and "IEC958" in alsamixer -c0 (alsamixer by itself picks up pulseaudio nowadays apparently). It's as if the amp is powered down, or we route everything to modem :-) Never a click or a buzz. I also have mic routing to pcm turned up and this makes no sound. Entering the jack to the headphone socket also makes no "click" in the headphones as you could maybe expect.
Maybe there is a special GPIO floating about that enables amp power?

Just some derisory extra information, external mic jack is working fine (and has bias voltage), Line-jack is also OK, but built-in mic is dead with some very small noise, maybe it is not given bias. If the issue was basically power management enabling, it could make sense.
I saw realtek are pretty good with their datasheets, but there is none for ALC889 in their ftp site that has the rest.
I also recompiled alsa 1.0.16 for grins but it didn't make any change. I looked in alsa-kernel/pci/hda/patch_realtek.c and enabled SND_CONFIG_DEBUG and SND_CONFIG_VERBOSE_PRINTK because there seemed to be some extra features generated then for ALC device GPIO pin control. But they didn't turn up in alsamixer. Do you know if there is an existing way to meddle with GPIO controls on ALC889 from inside ALSA easily?

Build CONFIG_SND_HDA_HWDEP=y and you'll have /dev/snd/hwC0D0 device. With the hda-verb program in the URL below, you can exec the verb on the fly: ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/people/tiwai/misc/hda-verb-0.2.tar.bz2

Thanks for the hints and the applet... after some meddling around I found the magic incantations to fire up the amp / speakers on this laptop are to force model=acer-aspire in /etc/modprobe.conf, then using the applet from the URL quoted above:
./hda-verb /dev/snd/hwC0D0 0x15 SET_EAPD_BTLENABLE 2
I confirmed stereo operation... it doesn't react to headphone insertion, plays audio through speakers and headphone jack in that case. Didn't try 5.1 (this laptop has a 5.1 speaker set) yet but I wouldn't be surprised if that was trouble too. Still this is waaaay better than silence! Thanks again for the help.

Is this above with model=acer-aspire *and* your additional verb? Or, is it without model option?
I found that one initialization is missing for auto-configuration mode of ALC889. Please try the patch below and remove model=xxx option.

Hi -
Is this above with model=acer-aspire *and* your additional verb? Or, is it without model option?
I tried it with model=acer (same as no forcing) and acer-aspire, I was able to play 2-channel PCM sounds OK only with the extra verb either way. I got more controls in alsamixer with just "acer" (like low frequency channel), but they didn't seem to do anything useful.
I found that one initialization is missing for auto-configuration mode of ALC889. Please try the patch below and remove model=xxx option.
OK I will test this patch later today with no model forcing.

OK, then you might need the patch below instead. If the first one failed, give it a try.
thanks,

Did you get any positive/negative result?

Sorry Takashi, I did try both patches but neither seemed to work. I didn't get any time since then to confirm it wasn't something dumb on my side. After failing to see anything from the recompile / re-install and modprobing snd-hda-intel out and back in, running hda-verb as described did continue to bring the audio right up.
I should check that the mixer VID/PID actually is ...889 on this machine.
