[alsa-devel] Front speakers doesn't work in multichannel output, regression in ALC888
Hi all,
My problem is that when I set channel output to "Analog output surround 5.1" (or 2.1 or 4.1), I hear no sound in front speakers, but in case of 5.1 or 4.1 I can hear sound in rear speakers. I use kernel 3.19.5 and it didn't happen in earlier kernels that is 3.18 and in 3.17 for sure.
My configuration is: OS: Fedora 21 64 bit SoundCard: ALC888 Model name: acer-aspire-4930g Laptop: Acer Aspire 5930g Speakers: external 5.1 with 3 jacks Sound channel configuration module is standard configuration module from KDE.
Additional info: 1) When channel output is 5.1 and I unplug green jack and leave two others jacks connected then I can hear sound in laptop internal speakers. 2) Earlier (kernel 3.18 and 3.17) I didn't have possibility to choose 2.1 configuration and additionally to 4.1 configuration I could also choose 4.0 configuration.
Thanks for looking into problem.
Cheers LW

I don't remember any relevant change... Could you try git bisect?
thanks,

You need to switch "Channel mode" to "6 ch" if you need to use external
5.1 speakers since you have 5.1 internal speakers
this change pin-ctl of headphone jack, mic jack and line in to OUT

You have to provide pulseaudio verbose log
If driver create channel mode which allow you to support surround5.1 with your headphone, line in and mic jack
It is possible for pulseaudio mute two of your external 5.1 speaker when headphone jack is plugged
