[alsa-devel] no front speaker sound with ALC262

[Rene Dohmen]

Hi List,

Is there any chance that this bug will be fixed soon?

I did some C/C++ progtramming in the last years and i'm willing to  
help where possible.
But I am new to Open Source Development with a community of  
developers and users.

Regards,
	Rene Dohmen
