[alsa-devel] Hda-intel: AC_VERB_SET_PIN_WIDGET_CONTROL appears to do nothing for HDMI device

[Ben Firshman]

This is on 1.0.16. Forgive me if I appear clueless, I have only been  
working on this for the past few hours.

In an attempt to get HDMI audio working on the AppleTV, I have added  
this line to the presets in patch_atihdmi.c:

{ .id = 0x10951390, .name = "SI1390 HDMI", .patch = patch_atihdmi },

The device is detected fine:

ben at mythfrontend:~$ aplay -l
**** List of PLAYBACK Hardware Devices ****
card 0: Intel [HDA Intel], device 0: ALC882 Analog [ALC882 Analog]
   Subdevices: 1/1

card 0: Intel [HDA Intel], device 3: ATI HDMI [ATI HDMI]
   Subdevices: 1/1
   Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
ben at mythfrontend:~$

and I can send audio to the device, but it doesn't work. I presume  
this because this is doing nothing:

static struct hda_verb atihdmi_basic_init[] = {
	/* enable digital output on pin widget */
	{ 0x03, AC_VERB_SET_PIN_WIDGET_CONTROL, PIN_OUT },
	{} /* terminator */
};

"Pin-ctls: 0x00:" should be reading "Pin-ctls: 0x40: OUT" should it  
not? What is wrong?

Thanks
