[alsa-devel] problems with Intel Corporation 82801H (ICH8 Family) HD Audio Controller (rev 03)
Hi folks,
I am having difficulty getting a friends on-board speakers working on her laptop. After some reading of forums I'm not sure whether there is a solution for this or not ?
The setup and details can be read below. The headphones work fine but the speakers are mute even though nothing is muted. I installed from source alsa version 1.0.15rc3 but to no avail.

does this sound familiar or is everybody blue in the face from hearing about this 'bug' :)?

It's a VERY old version. Try to install the latest ALSA HG version or the daily snapshot tarball. If it still doesn't work, check the codec from /proc/asound/card0/codec#* file, and try to pass model option values listed in ALSA-Configuration.txt.

I installed 1.0.15 from the website and had to add 'acer-aspire' as an option inorder to get it to work. With 'acer' as the option the speakers worked but the headphones didn't but 'acer-aspire' as the option the speakers and headphones worked but the speakers did not mute when headphones were plugged into the socket.
now it's working pretty okay.
Thanks for the help, Conor

Good to hear. Could you show the output of "lspci -nv" for the audio device? We can add the entry for your device so that the driver works without an extra model option.
thanks,

I think this is what you are after:
00:1b.0 0403: 8086:284b (rev 03) Subsystem: 1071:8253 Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 0, IRQ 22 Memory at fc300000 (64-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=16K] Capabilities: [50] Power Management version 2 Capabilities: [60] Message Signalled Interrupts: Mask- 64bit+ Queue=0/0 Enable- Capabilities: [70] Express Unknown type IRQ 0
hope this helps.

Hm, this is already listed as model=mitac.
Just to be sure: without the model option, what actually doesn't work?
Also, don't use 1.0.15 but use the HG version or the daily snapshot version as I requested. 1.0.15 is too old to debug, too.
Note that 1.0.16rc1 has a bug that may won't be built on some old kernels. It was already fixed today.
