[alsa-devel] Sound trouble with MCP61 chipset.

  Hi,

  I had sent a message a couple of weeks ago regarding a somewhat
reproducible error I'm having with onboard audio for systems with the
MCP61 chipset.  Specifically, the left channel doesn't work, and emits a
high-pitched tone whenever the audio device is open.  Also, adjusting
the volume disables all sound until the kernel modules for sound are all
reloaded.  

  I didn't receive any response to that message; is this the right place
to ask? I have two machines, both with the MCP61 chipset, and both with
the same problem.  I have included the lspci -v output of one of them
below.

  Thanks,
  Steve.
