[alsa-devel] ALSA on Alienware M17x
Hi guys,
I'm having a lot of trouble getting sound out of my Alienware M17x. I've attached the output from alsa-info. I'm running kernel version 2.6.28 with ALSA driver version 1.0.18.
There's no sound at all from the speakers or the headphones. In alsamixer, all channels appear un-muted and turned up full.
If you need any further information please let me know.
Regards, Adam Gray

1.0.18 is very old. Any chance to try the later version?

I'm now running with the latest version (1.0.21), initially with the same results. After some fiddling I've managed to get the headphones working by adding:
options snd-hda-intel model=dell-m6
to /etc/modprobe.d/alsa-base.conf. But still no speakers.
I've attached an updated alsa-info dump.

Try model=intel first. This will use the BIOS setup together with GPIO1.

After setting model=intel I now have the speakers working, but no headphones.

OK, then attach alsa-info.sh output at this point.
To be sure -- you got both headphones working with model=dell-m6?

Sorry. Forgot to attach it the first time.
With model=dell-m6 I only get sound out of the first headphone jack and the line-out jack.

Sorry. Forgot to attach it the first time. With model=dell-m6 I only get sound out of the first headphone jack and the line-out jack.
Which I/Os does your machine have? According to alsa-info.sh output, BIOS gives three HP jacks, one mic jack, one built-in speaker, one built-in mic, and one SPDIF out jack.
I guess the problem is due to three HPs. The driver hasn't been tested with three HP jacks, only with two HPs.
thanks,
Takashi

It has two headphone jacks, one line-out jack and one microphone jack, the front speakers and a microphone used with the webcam (I believe).

Unmuted surround and volume is up full. Nothing from the headphones. I also unmuted the PC beep and turned it up (just to check) and still nothing.

Well, which headphone? The driver tries to mute others when a HP is plugged. You need to figure out which I/O corresponds to which pin. You can try hda-verb to issue the pin detection verb. For example, to check the pin 0x0a, run like:
# hda-verb /dev/snd/hwC0D0 0x0a GET_PIN_SENSE 0
If the jack corresponding to this pin is plugged, the bit 31 should be 1. BIOS shows that pins 0x0a, 0x0b, 0x0d are for HP and line-outs. Figure out which are which.
Also, you can try to toggle power bits of IDT codec, e.g. # hda-verb /dev/snd/hwC0D0 0x01 0x7ec 0x00 to power up all analog pins.

0x0a = HP1 0x0b = HP2 0x0d = line-out
After running "hda-verb /dev/snd/hwC0D0 0x01 0x7ec 0x00" and plugging in headphones there's a short burst of sound from them before they cut out.

Could you try the patch below together with the latest alsa-driver snapshot? The URL is below: ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/tiwai/snapshot/alsa-driver-snapshot.tar.gz Apply it on alsa-driver/alsa-kernel directory with patch -p2 option.
After rebuilding the driver, load the module without model option.

Unmuted surround and volume is up full. Nothing from the headphones. I also unmuted the PC beep and turned it up (just to check) and still nothing.
Well, which headphone? The driver tries to mute others when a HP is plugged. You need to figure out which I/O corresponds to which pin. You can try hda-verb to issue the pin detection verb. For example, to check the pin 0x0a, run like:
# hda-verb /dev/snd/hwC0D0 0x0a GET_PIN_SENSE 0
If the jack corresponding to this pin is plugged, the bit 31 should be 1. BIOS shows that pins 0x0a, 0x0b, 0x0d are for HP and line-outs. Figure out which are which.
Also, you can try to toggle power bits of IDT codec, e.g. # hda-verb /dev/snd/hwC0D0 0x01 0x7ec 0x00 to power up all analog pins.
Takashi
0x0a = HP1 0x0b = HP2 0x0d = line-out
After running "hda-verb /dev/snd/hwC0D0 0x01 0x7ec 0x00" and plugging in headphones there's a short burst of sound from them before they cut out.
Issue the power bits verb after plugging the headphone.
Takashi
Done. For both headphone jacks with no luck :(
Unfortunately I have to get to bed now. 2am and work tomorrow. Thanks for your help thus far.
Could you try the patch below together with the latest alsa-driver snapshot? The URL is below:
ftp://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/people/tiwai/snapshot/alsa-driver-sn apshot.tar.gz Apply it on alsa-driver/alsa-kernel directory with patch -p2 option.
After rebuilding the driver, load the module without model option.

Good to hear. Now I merged the fix to sound git tree.

Hi Adam,
I've got an Alienware M17X running Ubuntu 9.10 I've been having trouble getting sound working too, although its now running fine.
I added the following lines to alsa-base.conf: options snd-hda-intel model=intel enable=1 index=0 options snd-hda-intel enable_msi=1 alias snd-card-0 snd-hda-intel alias sound-slot-0 snd-hda-intel
As you said, model=intel got the sound coming through the speakers, but not the headphone. For me sound doesn't come through the first headphone jack, but it does for the second. Have you tried that?
Hope this helps.
Cheers, Pete
